percussion的词源解释,percussion来源

percussion(n.)

早在15世纪,“percussioun”,意为“打击; 内伤,挫伤”,源自拉丁语“percussionem”(主格“percussio”),意为“打击; 以打击为时间单位”,是“percutere”的动作名词,后者的过去分词词干意为“猛烈打击、敲打、打击过穿”,源自“per”(源于 PIE 词根“*per-”(1),意为“前进”,因此意为“通过”)和“quatere”(意为“敲打,震动”,请参阅“quash”)。

“打击乐器”的含义始见于1776年(“instrument of percussion”)。在医学诊断中,“敲打身体表面以确定被敲打区域器官的状态的方法”,始见于1781年。

The art of percussion, besides, although very simple in appearance, requires long practice, and a dexterity which few men can acquire. The slightest difference in the angle under which the fingers strike the thorax, may lead one to suspect a difference of sound which in reality does not exist. ["Laennec's New System of Diagnosis," in Quarterly Journal of Foreign Medicine and Surgery, November 1819]
另外,打击乐的艺术虽然看似非常简单,但需要长时间的实践和难以掌握的技巧。在不同的指控角度下敲击胸腔,微小的差异可能会导致人们怀疑声音上的差异实际上并不存在。 (“Laennec's New System of Diagnosis,” in Quarterly Journal of Foreign Medicine and Surgery, November 1819)
