gallipoliとは 意味・読み方・使い方

語源

ANZAC Cove in Gallipoli, Turkey (sense 1), a World War II battle site.

A view of Gallipoli in Apulia, Italy (sense 2).

Sense 1 (“peninsula in Turkey”) is borrowed from Italian Gallipoli, from Turkish Gelibolu, and from its etymon Byzantine Greek Καλλίπολῐς (Kallípolĭs, “Kallipolis, former name of Gelibolu”) and late variant forms, from Ancient Greek κᾰ́λλος (kắllos, “beauty; beautiful person or thing; nobility”) (of unknown origin, disputedly from Proto-Indo-European *kal- (“beautiful”)) + πόλις (pólis, “city; city-state”) (ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *tpelH- (“city; fortification”)). Doublet of Callipolis, Gelibolu, and Kallipolis.

Sense 2 (“town in Italy”) is borrowed from Italian Gallipoli, from Latin Callipolis, from Byzantine Greek Καλλίπολῐς (Kallípolĭs): see above.

        And anyway, it strikes me that the blasted English use Anzacs as fodder for the enemy guns, putting them into places where they don't want to waste their own precious tropps. Look at the way that saber-rattling [Winston] Churchill sent our men into something as useless as Gallipoli! Ten thousand killed out of fifty thousand! Twice as bad as decimation.
