覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
realme は現代英語 realm「王国・領域」の古い綴りで、末尾の黙字 e を含む歴史的表記として覚える。中世文書の the king's realme や the realme of England という形を思い浮かべる。現代の文章では realm を使い、王が統治する範囲から比喩的な「分野」へ広がった語義も対応させる。
Learn realme as an old spelling of modern realm, not as a separate everyday word. The final e is a visible marker of the historical form, while the meaning remains a kingdom or territory governed by a monarch. Picture a medieval manuscript containing phrases such as “the king’s realme” or “the realme of England.” In modern writing, replace it with realm. The central image is the full area under royal rule; from that territorial sense, modern realm can also refer figuratively to a field of knowledge or activity.

realme の語源・成り立ち Etymology
古フランス語 realme（王国）を経てラテン語 regalis（王の）に遡る。realm の古い綴りで、reg-（支配する）が語根。関連語: realm（領域）、regime（体制）。王が治める範囲という原義から、広く「領域」の意味に発展した。
Realme is an older spelling of realm. English borrowed the word from Old French realme, meaning a kingdom, a form related through medieval developments to Latin regalis, “royal,” and ultimately to the root reg-, “to rule.” The original sense was the territory governed by a king or queen. The spelling was later standardized as realm, which also developed the broader figurative sense of a sphere or field of activity.
