trapeze(n.)
"Trapeze" is a noun that refers to a swing with a cross-bar, which is used for feats of strength and agility. It originated in 1861 from the French word trapèze,, which came from Late Latin trapezium (see trapezium). The name "trapeze" was probably given because the crossbar, ropes, and ceiling formed a trapezium shape.

vibrato
1861年(副词),1870年(名词),“音乐中颤动的效果”,源自意大利语的 vibrato,从拉丁语的 vibratus 派生而来,是 vibrare “振动”的过去分词(源自于 PIE 词根 *weip-,表示“旋转、摆动、狂喜地颤抖”)。
Strictly, the vibrato is distinct from the tremolo, in that the latter involves a perceptible variation in pitch; but in common usage the terms are made synonymous. [Century Dictionary]
严格而言, vibrato 与 tremolo 在本质上是不同的,因为后者涉及到可感知的音高变化; 但在日常用法中,这两个术语通常是同义的。[世纪词典]
