sterling词源中文解释

大约1300年,"英国银便士",从理查德一世时期开始发行,这是一个备受争议的词源。也许它来自中古英语 sterre(见 star(名词)),根据 OED 的说法,这个名字"很可能"是因为某些诺曼硬币的设计中有星星,再加上一个小号后缀 -ling 。带星星的硬币在盎格鲁-撒克逊或盎格鲁-诺曼的货币中并不常见(威廉的便士的一个变种有两个小星星,星星在异教罗马硬币上更常见)。

《中古英语汇编》提到了盎格鲁-法语 esterling, sterling,旧法语 esterlin 的变体,还有中世纪拉丁语 sterlingus,"都可能最终源自古英语...." 另一种理论[Kluge]认为它源自古法语 estedre "stater"(见 stater)。从 Easterling 的旧词源被认为早已被推翻。这个拼写与苏格兰城市 Stirling 的拼写有些混淆。

到了14世纪末,这个词的意义扩大为"标准合法的货币单位"; 到了16世纪60年代,它被用来指任何具有英镑的品质的货币; 到了大约1600年,它指的是"英国货币"的总称。

作为形容词,大约在1400年,用于货币,表示"具有固定或标准的国家价值",因此符合法定的纯度要求。到了1640年代,这个意义扩展到原则、品质等方面,引申为"能经受考验"的一般或比喻意义(就像一枚合格的硬币一样)。

一个 pound sterling 最初是"一磅重的英镑",大约等于240个。
