stipend[stipend 词源字典]

stipend: [15] Latin stīpendium denoted a ‘tax’ or ‘levy’. It was a compound noun formed from stips ‘payment, donation’ and pendere ‘weigh, pay’. It subsequently shifted in meaning to ‘wages, salary’, and particularly ‘soldier’s pay’, both of which passed into English via Old French stipende.
