中英词源

sinecure 挂名，闲职

来自拉丁短语 beneficium sine cura,不用履行牧师职责的圣俸职务，来自 beneficium,圣俸，即 benefice,sine,无，没有，cura,关心，关切，即 cure.后词义通俗化为挂名，闲职，吃空饷。wWW.wenTiYI.cOM

sinecure: sinecure: [17] Sinecure means literally ‘without cure’. It comes from the Latin phrase beneficium sine cūrā ‘benefice without cure’, that is to say an ecclesiastical office that does not involve the cure of souls (looking after people’s spiritual welfare), the usual duty of a priest. Hence it came to be applied to any appointment that involves payment for no work.
sinecure (n.): 1660s, "church benefice with an emolument but without parish duties," from Medieval Latin beneficium sine cura "benefice without care" (of souls), from Latin sine "without" (see sans) + cura, ablative singular of cura "care" (see cure (n.1)).
