chore词源中文解释

"一项小工作或任务"，尤指"定期或频繁出现的小型家务工作"，1751年，美国英语，变体自 char，源自中古英语 cherre "零工"，来自古英语 cerr， cierr "轮流，变化，时间，场合，事务业务"。相关词： Chores。

Chore, a corruption of char, is an English word, still used in many parts of England, as a char-man, a char-woman; but in America, it is perhaps confined to New England. It signifies small domestic jobs of work, and its place cannot be supplied by any other single word in the language. [Noah Webster, "Dissertations on the English Language," 1789]

Chore 是英语单词的一个变体，仍在英格兰的许多地方使用，如 char-man， char-woman；但在美国，它可能仅限于 New England。它表示小型家务工作，没有其他单词可以替代它。[诺亚·韦伯斯特，《英语语言论文》，1789年]
