來源:
Dutch rooster [gridiron, roster (from the ruled paper used for a roster)]
荷蘭rooster [烤架,項目單(源於做花名冊用的印有平行線的紙張)]
from roosten [to roast]
源自 roosten [烤]

<注釋>To be told that the wordroster is related to a gridiron upon which one roasts meat might not come as a surprise, depending on what sort of rosters one`s name has graced.The connection between the roster as we know it and a gridiron was made in Dutch,where the wordrooster, meaning .gridiron. (from the verb roosten, .to roast.), was extended in sense to mean .a table, list..This extension was made because of the resemblance of a gridiron to a piece of paper divided by parallel lines that contains a list or table.The earliest use in English (first recorded in 727) for the wordroster borrowed from Dutch was military, referring to a list or plan that outlined when officers, men, and bodies of troops should perform their turn of duty. Roster is no longer exclusively military in usage,nor does it mean simply a list of rotating turns of duty;one could perhaps even have a roster of meats to be roasted at a barbecue.
如果說roster 一詞與供烤肉用的燒烤架有關也許不會令人吃驚, 這就要看名字上了什麼樣的花名冊。荷蘭語把我們所知道的roster(花名冊)與gridiron(烤架)聯繫了起來,rooster 意為.烤架.(源於動詞 roosten ,意思是.烤.), 詞義延伸後意為.表格,名單.。該詞之所以有這樣的延伸義是因為烤架與被平行線分成表格的紙張有相似之處。roster 一詞從荷蘭語中借用後,在英文中(第一次記載於727年)最早運用於軍事, 指粗略記錄軍官、士兵和部隊輪流執行任務的名單或計畫。 Roster 不再為軍隊專用,也不僅僅表示.輪班的名單.的意思,燒烤時我們甚至可以用.烤肉的肉單.
