词汇	china
释义	chi·na AHD[chīʹnə] D.J.[ˈtʃaɪnə]K.K.[ˈtʃaɪnə]n.（名词）China High-quality porcelain or ceramic ware, originally made in China.瓷器：原产于中国的优质瓷器或陶瓷器 Porcelain or earthenware used for the table.陶瓷餐具：餐桌上使用的瓷器或陶器 Etymology语源 Short for chinaware chinaware的简写 注释 Our termchina for porcelain or ceramic ware is a shortening of chinaware and probably china dishes. Although the wordchina is identical in spelling to the name of the country, there are 16th- and 17th-century spellings likechiney, cheny, and cheney that reflect the borrowing into English of the Persian term for this porcelain,chīnī. The Persian word and the Sanskrit wordcīnāḥ, "Chinese people,” which gave us the English name for the country, go back to the Chinese wordQin, the name of the dynasty that ruled China from 221 to 206b.c. 我们所说的表示瓷器或陶器的词china 是 chinaware 或者可能是 china dishes 的缩写形式。 虽然china 这个词拼写上与中国的国名是一样的， 但16和17世纪时也有chiney，cheny 和 cheney 等拼法， 表明英语借用了波斯语中表示这种瓷器的词，chini 。 这个波斯词，还有梵语中cinah 一词（“中国人”，英语中中国的名称即从这个词而来）， 都来自汉语里的Qin 字， 这是从公元前 221至206年统治中国的王朝的名称
