英语词源

laundry

laundry: [16] Although it is better disguised than most of its relatives, laundry is one of a large family of English words derived from Latin lavāre ‘wash’ (see LAVATORY). It is a contraction of an earlier lavendry, which came via Old French lavanderie from Latin lavandārium ‘things to be washed’. By the time it reached English it had also acquired the meaning ‘place where things are washed’

洗衣服用英语怎么说?

洗衣服 = do the laundry。

“laundry” 指“洗衣店,洗衣房,要洗的衣物”。比如《老友记》、《生活大爆炸》等一些美剧中,可以看到剧中人物带着大量的衣物到洗衣店里清洗,这种公用洗衣房就是“laundry”。

“do the laundry” 才是英语中“洗衣服”的地道表达方式。当然有时在英式英语中,也用“do the washing”表达“洗衣服”。

例句:It's a good day to do the laundry.今天是个洗衣服的好天气。

扩展资料:

另外,用“wash”来表达“洗”,偏向于中式思维。在英语中,虽然“wash” 的意思是“洗涤,冲洗”,但没有那么具体化,不能确定“在哪洗”或“洗什么”。相关词汇:

1、洗衣机:washing machine

2、干衣机:dryer

3、干洗:dry clean

4、手洗:hand wash

5、洗衣粉/液:laundry detergent
