liturgy[liturgy 词源字典]

liturgy: [16] Etymologically, liturgy means ‘public performance’. It comes via late Latin līturgia from Greek leitourgíā ‘public service or worship’. This was a derivative of leitourgós ‘public servant’, hence ‘priest’, a compound formed from leit-, the stem of lēós ‘people, multitude’ (from which English gets layman), and érgon ‘work, action’ (source of English energy).
