The word in the formtenetz is first recorded in a work written around 1400. The game referred to is what is now calledcourt tennis, or real tennis, which is played on a large indoor court with a specially marked-out floorand high cement walls off which the ball may be played.It seems likely that the Middle English formtenetz is from tenetz, an Anglo-Norman variant of the Old French word tenez, the imperative oftenir, "to hold,” and meaning "receive,” said by the server to his opponent.As this evidence indicates, tennis originated in medieval France,but the French called the game, then as now,la paume. Bytennis we do not mean what tenetz or la paume meant but rather lawn tennis, a term first recorded around 1874, shortly after an early form of lawn tennis, descended from court tennis, was introduced. Unlike court tennis, which is traditionally associated with the rich and the royal, tennis is open to players from a wide spectrum of society,although it certainly is not unconnected with the rich and the royal.令人惊讶的是，尽管人们对这项运动的历史知之甚多，但tennis 一词的起源却不被人所详细了解。 在约1400年，此词以tenetz 的形式第一次出现在书面上。 其所指的运动就是现在所谓的court tennis 或 real tennis ， 这是一种在有标记的地板的室内场地上进行的运动，场地四周有很高的泥灰墙。而中古英语的tenetz 有可能是从 tenetz 这个古法语中的盎格鲁-诺曼变体 tenez 得来的。 而该古法语词又是tenir 一词的祈使式， 意为“抓住，握住”，而发球人对其对手说时意义为“接住”。这一例子似乎说明网球运动起源于中世纪的法国，但是在法语中，这项运动从古至今一直被称为la paume 。 我们用tennis 这一词其实指代的不是 tenetz 或者 la paume 指代的事物，而是 lawn tennis 这一在1874年前后第一次被记录的词语所指代的事物，此时由庭院网球演变而来的草地网球的一种早期形式正在被介绍开来。 不象传统上与富人和贵族联系紧密的庭院网球，网球运动适合社会各阶层的人，当然这并不是说这一运动就与富人和贵族没有联系〔village〕a village square; the village green.村庄广场；村间草地〔paramo〕A treeless alpine plateau of the Andes and tropical South America.高山稀疏草地：安第斯山脉和热带南美洲的高山上不生树木的高原〔corncrake〕A common Eurasian bird(Crex crex) with a short bill and brownish-yellow plumage, found in grain fields and meadows. 长脚秧鸡：欧亚一种普通短嘴秧鸡（长脚秧鸡） ，喙短，羽毛棕黄色，常在谷物田和草地里出没 〔green〕A grassy lawn or plot, especially:草地，绿地：一块草坪或草地，尤指：〔sloppy〕During the owners' absence the lawn became dreadfully unkempt.主人们不在的时候，草地变得凌乱不堪。〔pratincole〕Latin prātum [meadow] 拉丁语 prātum [草地] 〔pockmark〕The gophers left the lawn covered with pockmarks.黄鼠离开了满是洞眼的草地〔greensward〕Ground that is green with grass; turf.草皮，草地：覆盖绿草的地块；草坪〔fog〕A new growth of grass appearing on a field that has been mowed or grazed.割后再生的草：被割剪或放牧过的草地又重新长出的新草〔meadow〕A tract of grassland, either in its natural state or used as pasture or for growing hay.草地，牧场：保留原始状态、用作牧场或用于种草的一片草地〔grass〕An expanse of ground, such as a lawn, covered with grass or similar plants.草地：一块广阔土地，如草地，覆盖有草及类似的植物〔Runnymede〕A meadow in southeast England on the Thames River west of London.
