厨房業務
解説 Definition
キッチンに関する、または台所業務に従事する。調理または食事準備に関連する行為または人。
A rare or nonstandard noun referring to work performed in a kitchen, especially preparing meals and carrying out related household or institutional duties. In modern English, kitchen work or cooking duties is usually more natural.
覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
kitchingは標準的な頻出語ではなく、kitchen「台所」に-ingを加えて「厨房での仕事」を表したまれな名詞的用法と捉えます。kitching duties、kitching tasksのように業務名を後ろに置く例を覚え、現代の自然な英語では通常kitchen workやcooking dutiesと言い換えます。
See kitching as kitchen plus the activity-forming ending -ing: it refers to work done in a kitchen. Learn it through combinations such as kitching duties, kitching tasks, and a kitching position, which all point to food preparation or related service work. However, it is rare and nonstandard in present-day English. In ordinary conversation or professional writing, kitchen work, cooking duties, food preparation, or kitchen staff will usually sound more natural. This contrast lets you understand the unusual form without assuming that it is the normal verb for cooking.
例文

She was hired for the kitching position at the grand hotel.
彼女は大規模なホテルのキッチン職に雇われた。

kitching の語源・成り立ち Etymology
英語 kitchen に -ing が付いた派生形とみられ、語幹 kitchen は古英語 cycene、さらに後期ラテン語 coquina「調理場」に由来します。もとが『料理する場所』なので、kitching は『台所での作業』という感覚で理解できます。関連語は kitchen, kitchenette。
Kitching appears to be formed within English from kitchen plus -ing, on the model of nouns denoting an activity or type of work. Kitchen comes through Old English cycene from a Germanic borrowing ultimately related to Late Latin coquina, “a place for cooking,” from coquere, “to cook.” The resulting form kitching is rare and has not become the standard name for kitchen labor.
