timpani 定音鼓

来自意大利语 timpani,鼓，定音鼓，来自拉丁语 tympanum,鼓，来自 typtein,敲打，拍打，词源同 type,timbre,tympanum.

timpani: timpani: [16] Timpani was borrowed from Italian, where it is the plural of timpano ‘kettledrum’. This in turn went back via Latin tympanum ‘drum’ (source of English tympanum ‘ear-drum’ [17]) to Greek túmpanon ‘drum’, a close relative of the verb túptein ‘hit’. Part of the same word-family is timbre ‘sound-quality’ [19], whose French antecedent meant ‘bell hit with a hammer’.
=> timbre, tympanum
timpani (n.): 1876, plural of timpano (1740), from Italian timpani "drums," from Latin tympanum "drum" (see tympanum). Related: Timpanist.
