“gaol”是英語中表示“監獄”的舊式拼寫,現多用于英國、澳大利亞等英聯邦國家,與“jail”同義但具有地域性特征。該詞源自古法語“gaiole”(意為“地牢”或“牢房”),經由中世紀拉丁語“caveola”演變而來。根據《牛津英語詞典》記載,其在英國法律文本中仍保留使用,例如《英國監獄法》等正式文件中可見該拼寫(來源:Oxford English Dictionary)。
現代英語中,“jail”已成為國際通用拼寫,但“gaol”仍常見于曆史文獻、地名及部分官方文件。例如澳大利亞悉尼的“帕拉馬塔老監獄”(Old Parramatta Gaol)便沿用了傳統拼寫(來源:Australian National Dictionary)。語言學研究表明,這種拼寫差異反映了英語在殖民時期的傳播路徑及地方語言規範化進程(來源:Cambridge University Press)。
以下是關于單詞gaol 的詳細解釋:
"The castle had been used as a gaol."(這座城堡曾被用作監獄。)
"The armed robber was gaoled."(持械搶劫犯被監禁。)
