    为来访总统举办的国宴

  • banquet (n.) late 15c., "feast, sumptuous entertainment," from Old French banquet "feast," earlier simply "small bench," from Old Italian banchetto, diminutive of banco "bench," variant of banca "bench," which is from a Germanic source (see bench (n.)). Apparently originally "a snack eaten on a bench" (rather than at table), hence "a slight repast between meals;" if so, the meaning has entirely changed.
  • banquet (v.) "to feast," c. 1500, from banquet (n.). Related: Banqueted; banqueting.
