recorder
英 [rɪ'kɔːdə]
美 [rɪ'kɔrdɚ]
助記提示
1、re- "again" + cord- + -er.
2、該詞可以說與remember是殊途同歸。
3、該詞的最初含義為：repeat, reiterate, recite, tell, relate, report, make known; remember, call to mind, think over, be mindful of. 其後，其含義演變為：set down in writing, put sound or pictures on disks, tape, etc.
4、記錄、記載從某種意義上講也就是對其說的內容進行重複、複述，將其記住。記錄下來的東西其實就是無聲的話語，有形的記憶，看得到的記憶。

英文詞源
- recorder (n.)
- "chief legal officer of a city," early 15c., from Anglo-French recordour (early 14c.), Old French recordeor "witness; storyteller; minstrel," from Medieval Latin recordator, from Latin recordari "remember" (see record (v.)).
Meaning "registering apparatus" is from 1873. The musical instrument is attested by this name from early 15c., from record (v.) in the obsolete sense of "practice a tune." Used by Shakespeare and Milton ("of flutes and soft recorders," "Paradise Lost"). The name, and the device, were rarely heard by mid-1800s, ousted by the flute, but enjoyed a revival after 1911 as an easy-to-play instrument for musical beginners.
