Its first recorded occurrence is found in a work composed around 1300,the word having come into Middle English (assoudier ) from Old French soudoior and Anglo-Norman soudeour. The Old French word,first recorded in the 12th century,is derived fromsol or soud, Old French forms of Modern French sou. There is no longer a French coin namedsou, but the meaning of the wordsou alerts us to the fact that money is involved. Indeed, Old Frenchsol referred to a coin and also meant "pay,”and asoudoior was a man who fought for pay. This was a concept worth expressing in an era when many men were not paid for fighting but did it in service to a feudal superior.Thussoldier is parallel to the word mercenary, which goes back to Latinmercēnnārius, derived frommerces, "pay,” and meaning "working for pay.”The word could also be used as a noun,one of whose senses was "a soldier of fortune.”士兵们为什么而打仗?其中一个答案就隐藏在soldier 这个单词里面。 在大约1300年的一本著作中发现了这个词的最早记载。这个词由古法语的soudoior 和盎格鲁诺曼底语中的 soudeour 进入中古英语（形式为 soudier )。 古法语中的这个单词，最早记录于12世纪，是由sol 或 soud ，现代法语单词 sou 的古法语形式衍变而来的。 已经没有叫做sou 的法国硬币了， 但是单词sou 的意思使我们意识到这和钱有关。 实际上，古法语中的sol 指的是一枚硬币， 也意味着“报酬”，而soudoior 是一个为了报酬而打仗的人。 在许多人打仗并没有得到报酬而是给封建王服役的时代里，这种概念是值得表达出来的。这样，士兵(soldier) 类似于 雇佣兵(mercenary) ， 可以追溯到拉丁文mercennarius ， 由merces “报酬”衍变而来， 意思是“为报酬而工作”。这个词也能当名词使用，其中的一个意思是“雇佣兵”〔copper〕A coin, usually of small denomination, made of copper or a copper alloy.铜币：用铜或铜的合金制成的硬币，通常为小面值〔kopeck〕from kopie [spear (from the image of a rider with a spear on the coins minted by Moscow after the capture of Novgorod in 1478)] 源自 kopie [长矛（1478年攻克诺夫哥罗德之后，莫斯科在这种硬币上印上了带长矛的骑士的图象，由此而得名）] 〔shiner〕One that shines, as a star, jewel, or coin.发光物：发光的东西，比如星星、珠宝或硬币〔tanner〕A sixpenny coin formerly used in Britain; a sixpence.过去在英国使用的一种六便士硬币；六便士〔sterling〕-ling [diminutive suff.] [from the small star stamped on the coin] * see -ling 1-ling [ 后缀，表“小”] [源于印在硬币上的小星星] * 参见 -ling1〔change〕had change jingling in his pocket.他口袋里硬币地叮当作响〔penny〕Middle English [an English coin] 中古英语 [英国硬币] 〔incuse〕an incuse design on a coin.硬币上铸印的图案〔uncirculated〕uncirculated coins; uncirculated air.不流通的硬币；沉滞的空气〔monetary〕Of or relating to a nation's currency or coinage.See Synonyms at financial 货币的，硬币的：国家货币或硬币的或与之有关的 参见 financial〔legend〕An inscription or a title on an object, such as a coin.镌刻文字，铭文：镌刻在物体（如硬币）之上的题字或名号〔halfpenny〕A British coin worth one half of a new penny.半便士：一种英国硬币，币值是新版便士的一半〔gazette〕probably from Italian dialectal gazeta [a small coin (possibly from the price)] 可能源自 意大利方言 gazeta [小的硬币（可能来自于价钱）] 〔mintage〕Coins manufactured in a mint.硬币：在铸币厂铸造的硬币〔toss〕To flip (coins) in order to decide an issue.投掷（硬币）来决定某件事情〔crown〕A coin stamped with a crown or crowned head on one side.克朗：在某一面上印有王冠或戴着王冠的头像的硬币〔marzipan〕from Arabic mawAabān [king on the throne, Byzantine coin with enthroned Christ figure] 源自 阿拉伯语 mawAabān [在位的国王，铸有基督坐像的拜占庭硬币] 〔prutah〕A coin formerly used in Israel, equal to one thousandth of a pound.普鲁特：一种以前在以色列使用的硬币，等于千分之一磅〔planchet〕A flat disk of metal ready for stamping as a coin; a coin blank.硬币坯，金属坯：打上戳记后用做硬币的一种水平金属圆片；硬币坯〔dime〕A coin of the United States or Canada worth ten cents.一角银币：美国或加拿大价值十美分的硬币〔halfpenny〕A British coin worth one half of an old penny, no longer in circulation.半便士：一种英国硬币，币值是老便士的一半，已不再流通〔nummular〕From Latin nummulus [diminutive of] nummus [coin] 源自 拉丁语 nummulus nummus的小后缀 [硬币] 〔mint〕from Old English mynet [coin] 源自 古英语 mynet [硬币] |
