英文词源

benefice (n.): c. 1300, "a church living," from Old French benefice (13c.) and directly from Latin beneficium "a favor, service, generosity, kindness, benefit," from beneficus "generous, kind, benevolent, obliging," from bene- "good, well" (see bene-) + -ficus, from stem of -ficere, unstressed form of facere "to do, to make" (see factitious).
