Middle English donjon [castle keep, dungeon]
中古英语 donjon [城堡主楼]
from Old French [keep]
源自 古法语 [城堡主楼]
probably from Medieval Latin domniô [the lord`s tower]
可能源自 中世纪拉丁语 domniô [领主的塔]
from Latin dominus [master] * see dem-
源自 拉丁语 dominus [主人] *参见 dem-
<注释>The worddungeon may have gone down in the world quite literally, if one etymology of the word is correct. Dungeon may go back to a Vulgar Latin word,domniô, meaning .the lord`s tower,.which came from Latindominus, .master.. In Middle English,in which our word is first recorded in a work composed around the beginning of the 4th century,it meant .a fortress, castle,. and .the keep of a castle. as well as .a prison cell underneath the keep of the castle..Dungeon can still mean .keep,. although the usual spelling for this sense is donjon, but the meaning most usually associated with it is certainly not elevated.It is also possible thatdungeon goes back to a Germanic word related to our word dung. This assumed Germanic word would have meant .an underground house constructed of dung..If this etymology is correct, the worddungeon has ended up where it began.
单词dungeon 的一种词源是它以其字面意义流传下来， 如果这个单词其中的一种语源是正确的话。 Dungeon 可追溯到拉丁俗词domnio， 意为.领主的塔.，这一拉丁俗词又来自拉丁文dominus， 意为.主人.。 在中古英语时期，该词首次记录于作于4世纪初的一部作品，意为.要塞，城堡.，.城堡主楼.以及.城堡方楼下的地牢.。Dungeon 仍有城堡主楼的意思，但最常与之联系在一起的这一拼法为 donjon， 但最常与之联系在一起的这一意义显然流传不广。Dungeon 还可能上溯到与之相联系的日耳曼语词 dung。 这一假设的日耳曼语词可能曾意为.由粪建构的地下房屋.。假如这一词源正确，dungeon 一词结束于它起源的地方
