nghĩa địa
/ˈɡreɪvjɑːd//ˈɡreɪvjɑːrd/The word "graveyard" has its roots in Old English and Middle English. The term "grave" comes from the Old English "græf", which means "burial" or "tomb". The suffix "-yard" is derived from the Middle English "yard", which means "enclosure" or "boundary". In the 14th century, the terms "grave" and "yard" combined to form "graveyard", referring to a enclosed area where the dead were buried. Over time, the term "graveyard" has evolved to encompass a range of meanings, including a burial ground, a cemetery, or a place where ghosts are said to reside. Despite its evolution, the core meaning of "graveyard" remains connected to the Old English concept of a burial site.
an area of land, often near a church, where people are buried
một khu đất, thường gần nhà thờ, nơi chôn cất người
