英文词源
- architect
- architect: [16] Etymologically, an architect is a ‘master builder’. The word comes, via French architecte, Italian architetto, and Latin architectus, from Greek arkhitéktōn, a compound formed from the prefix arkhi- ‘leading’ and téktōn ‘builder’ (source of English tectonic and related, via Greek tékhnē, to English technical).
=> technical - architect (n.)
- 1550s, from Middle French architecte, from Latin architectus, from Greek arkhitekton "master builder, director of works," from arkhi- "chief" (see archon) + tekton "builder, carpenter" (see texture). An Old English word for it was heahcræftiga "high-crafter."
