释义

名词

布连拾街（Prinsep Street）的俗称。

DEFINITION

Noun

The colloquial name of Prinsep Street.

由来
  • 布连拾街是与桥北路（North Bridge Road）平行的第六条主要街道。
  • 六马路原称“富林街”（Flint Street），之后为了避免与莱佛士坊（Raffles Place）的富林街混淆，便于1858年改名为布连拾街。
  • 布连拾街名称的由来是为了纪念一名律师布连拾（C.H. Prinsep）。布连拾律师原在六马路一带拥有一片豆蔻种植园，而其中部分园区后来被征用来兴建今天的布连拾街。
  • 有说法认为早期也有人将与布连拾街相邻的肃街（Short Street）称为“六马路”，但约定俗成，一般只将“六马路”当作布连拾街的俗称。
  • 布连拾街长老会磐石堂（Prinsep Street Presbyterian Church）是六马路最著名的建筑，于2000年1月12日被列为新加坡国家古迹。
ETYMOLOGY
  • Prinsep Street is the sixth major road that runs parallel to North Bridge Road.
  • It was originally known as Flint Street, but was renamed in 1858 to avoid confusion with another Flint Street in Raffles Place.
  • Prinsep Street is named after C.H. Prinsep, a lawyer. He owned a nutmeg plantation here, part of which was requisitioned to construct Prinsep Street.
  • In the early days, it is believed that some people regarded adjacent Short Street – instead of Prinsep Street – as “六马路” (“the sixth major road”). However, the consensus today is that only Prinsep Street is known as “六马路”.
  • Prinsep Street Presbyterian Church is the most notable building along Prinsep Street. It was listed as a National Monument of Singapore on 12 January 2000.
例句
教堂后来扩充，曾更名为六马路礼拜堂（布连拾街的旧俗称），大部分信徒为土生华人，教堂一度提供马来语和潮州话的礼拜。（《联合早报》，10/9/2020）
SAMPLE SENTENCE
The church was later expanded and renamed Prinsep Street Church. As its followers were mainly Straits Chinese, the church used to offer services in Malay and Teochew. (Lianhe Zaobao, 10/9/2020)
