英文词源

hamlet
hamlet: [14] Hamlet is a double diminutive: etymologically it means ‘little little village’. It comes from Old French hamelet, a diminutive form of hamel, which was itself a diminutive of ham ‘village’. This was borrowed from a Germanic word related to English home, and to the -ham in many English place-names.
=> home
hamlet (n.)
early 14c., from Old French hamelet "small village," diminutive of hamel "village," itself a diminutive of ham "village," from Frankish *haim or some other Germanic source, from Proto-Germanic *haimaz "home" (see home (n.)); for ending, see -let. Especially a village without a church.
