[字彙] overture (n) 序曲
初見此字
因看到 over 在前
便猜它有「結束」的意思
沒想到恰恰相反,它是歌劇 (opera) 的前奏曲、序曲,是開始的意思
mid-13c., "an introductory proposal," from O.Fr. overture "opening,
proposal," from L. apertura "opening," from aperire "to open, uncover" (see
overt). Orchestral sense first recorded in English 1660s.
字源來自古法文,拼法即是 overture,是「開口、開始」的意思,古法文又
來自拉丁文 apertura (即英文 aperture 「孔徑」的字源)

此字要從字源去瞭解它的意思,也許可記它恰是 over (結束) 的相反。
