翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Chestnut (joke) ： ウィキペディア英語版 Chestnut (joke) Chestnut is a British slang term for an old joke, often as old chestnut. The term is also used for a piece of music in the repertoire that has grown stale or hackneyed with too much repetition. A plausible explanation for the term given by the Oxford English Dictionary is that it originates from a play named "The Broken Sword" by William Dimond,〔(World Wide Words: "Chestnut" )〕 in which one character keeps repeating the same stories, one of them about a cork tree, and is interrupted each time by another character who says: ''Chestnut, you mean . . . I have heard you tell the joke twenty-seven times and I am sure it was a chestnut''. The play was first performed in 1816, but the term did not come into widespread usage until the 1880s. ==See also== *old chestnut in Wiktionary 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chestnut (joke)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
