biscuit 饼干
bis, 二。cuit, 词源同cook. 原指两面煎烤的面包。
- biscuit
- biscuit: [14] Biscuit means literally ‘twicecooked’ – from the method of cooking, in which the biscuits are returned to the oven after the initial period of baking in order to become dry or crisp. The original source of the word was probably a medieval Latin *biscoctus, from bis ‘twice’ and coctus ‘cooked’, the past participle of coquere (which is related to English cook). It reached English via Old French biscut.
=> cook - biscuit (n.)
- respelled early 19c. from bisket (16c.), ultimately (besquite, early 14c.) from Old French bescuit (12c.), literally "twice cooked;" altered under influence of cognate Old Italian biscotto, both from Medieval Latin biscoctum, from Latin (panis) bis coctus "(bread) twice-baked;" see bis- + cook (v.). U.S. sense of "soft bun" is recorded from 1818.

记忆方法
12世纪时,在一座海滨小城里,一位粗心大意的面包师误将已烘焙好了的饼子再次放到烤炉内进行烘烤。当他意识到自己的过失时,已经太迟了:经过两次烘焙的饼子变得又硬又脆。谁知,这种饼子的味道竟然还不错!就这样,饼干(biscuit)诞生了。
其实,从“biscuit”一词的字面上,我们便能看出其做法:前缀“bis-”意为“二、两”,单词“cuit”则意为“焙烧过的”。
