注釋

Surprisingly, the origin of the word tennis is not precisely known, even though much is known about the history of this sport. The word in the form tenetz is first recorded in a work written around 1400. The game referred to is what is now called court tennis, or real tennis, which is played on a large indoor court with a specially marked-out floor and high cement walls off which the ball may be played. It seems likely that the Middle English form tenetz is from tenetz, an Anglo-Norman variant of the Old French word tenez, the imperative of tenir, “to hold,” and meaning “receive,” said by the server to his opponent. As this evidence indicates, tennis originated in medieval France, but the French called the game, then as now, la paume. By tennis we do not mean what tenetz or la paume meant but rather lawn tennis, a term first recorded around 1874, shortly after an early form of lawn tennis, descended from court tennis, was introduced. Unlike court tennis, which is traditionally associated with the rich and the royal,tennis is open to players from a wide spectrum of society, although it certainly is not unconnected with the rich and the royal.

令人驚訝的是，盡管人們對(duì)這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)的歷史知之甚多，但tennis 一詞的起源卻不被人所詳細(xì)了解。 在約1400年，此詞以tenetz 的形式第一次出現(xiàn)在書(shū)面上。 其所指的運(yùn)動(dòng)就是現(xiàn)在所謂的court tennis 或 real tennis ， 這是一種在有標(biāo)記的地板的室內(nèi)場(chǎng)地上進(jìn)行的運(yùn)動(dòng)，場(chǎng)地四周有很高的泥灰墻。而中古英語(yǔ)的tenetz 有可能是從 tenetz 這個(gè)古法語(yǔ)中的盎格魯-諾曼變體 tenez 得來(lái)的。 而該古法語(yǔ)詞又是tenir 一詞的祈使式， 意為“抓住，握住”，而發(fā)球人對(duì)其對(duì)手說(shuō)時(shí)意義為“接住”。這一例子似乎說(shuō)明網(wǎng)球運(yùn)動(dòng)起源于中世紀(jì)的法國(guó)，但是在法語(yǔ)中，這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)從古至今一直被稱(chēng)為la paume 。 我們用tennis 這一詞其實(shí)指代的不是 tenetz 或者 la paume 指代的事物，而是 lawn tennis 這一在1874年前后第一次被記錄的詞語(yǔ)所指代的事物，此時(shí)由庭院網(wǎng)球演變而來(lái)的草地網(wǎng)球的一種早期形式正在被介紹開(kāi)來(lái)。 不象傳統(tǒng)上與富人和貴族聯(lián)系緊密的庭院網(wǎng)球，網(wǎng)球運(yùn)動(dòng)適合社會(huì)各階層的人，當(dāng)然這并不是說(shuō)這一運(yùn)動(dòng)就與富人和貴族沒(méi)有聯(lián)系
