| 词汇 | tarantella |
| 词根词缀 | 词源： 1782, "peasant dance popular in Italy," originally "hysterical malady characterized by extreme impulse to dance" (1638), epidemic in Apulia and adjacent parts of southern Italy 15c.-17c., popularly attributed to (or believed to be a cure for) the bite of the tarantula. This is likely folk-etymology, however, and the dance is from Taranto, the name of a city in southern Italy (see tarantula). Used from 1833 to mean the style of music that accompanies this dance, usually in 6/8 time, with whirling triplets and abrupt major-minor modulations. |
