翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Pontiff ： ウィキペディア英語版 Pontiff A pontiff (from Latin ''pontifex'') was, in Roman antiquity, a member of the most illustrious of the colleges of priests of the Roman religion, the College of Pontiffs.〔"Pontifex". "Oxford English Dictionary", March 2007〕〔(William Smith, A Dictionary of Greek and Roman Antiquities, article ''Pontifex'', pp. 939-942 )〕 The term "pontiff" was later applied to any high or chief priest and, in Roman Catholic ecclesiastical usage, to a bishop and more particularly to the Bishop of Rome, the Pope or "Roman Pontiff".〔(''Pontiff'', The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language )〕 ==Etymology== The English term derives through Old French ''pontif''〔〔In modern French the corresponding term is ''pontife''〕 from Latin ''pontifex'', a word commonly held to come from the Latin root words ''pons'' (bridge) + ''facere'' (to do, to make), and so to have the literal meaning of "bridge-builder". This may be only a folk etymology,〔 but it may also recall antique tasks and magic rites associated with bridges.〔(Encyclopaedia Britannica, article ''Roman religion'' )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pontiff」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
