plane.ness
n.（名詞）
<注釋>The plane in which we fly is properly named for a very important element of its structure—the wing that keeps it in the air.But the story behind this name is slightly complicated.To begin with,plane in the sense .winged vehicle,. first recorded in April 908, is a shortened form ofaeroplane. In June of that yearplane appeared in a quotation from the London Times that mentioned Mr. Wright. Aeroplane, first recorded in 8'', is made up of the prefixaero-, .air, aviation,. and the word plane, referring to the structure designed to keep an air vehicle aloft. Originally the plane in such contexts was imagined as flat,hence the choice of the wordplane; in practice this surface to curve slightly in order to work.The wordaeroplane for the vehicle is first found in 873. The first recorded appearance of the formairplane in our current sense, which uses air- instead of aero-, is found in 907. An American flies in anairplane while a Briton still travels in anaeroplane, but both can catch aplane.
我們用以飛行的飛機(jī)是以飛機(jī)結(jié)構(gòu)的一個(gè)非常重要的組成部分——維持飛機(jī)在空中飛行的機(jī)翼來(lái)恰當(dāng)?shù)孛?。但是這個(gè)名字背后的傳說(shuō)稍微有些復(fù)雜。起初，意為.有翼的飛行器.的plane 首次記載于908年四月， 是aeroplane 的縮寫形式。 那一年的'月，plane 出現(xiàn)在 倫敦時(shí)報(bào) 中提及賴特先生的一段引文中。 Aeroplane 首次記錄于8''年， 由前綴aero- .空氣，航空.和意指保持飛行器在高空飛行的結(jié)構(gòu)的單詞 plane 組成。 起初，在這些上下文中的機(jī)翼被想象成是平坦的，因此選用了單詞plane； 實(shí)踐中為了運(yùn)行機(jī)翼表面稍微有些彎曲。代表這種飛行器的單詞aeroplane 首次于873年發(fā)現(xiàn)。 具有現(xiàn)行意義的airplane 形式的首次記錄出現(xiàn)于907年，它使用 air- 代替了 aero-。 美國(guó)人使用airplane 飛行， 而英國(guó)人仍然乘一架aeroplane 旅行， 但他們都能趕上乘坐一架plane
