解説 Definition

ある場所に住んでいる、定住する状態。また、何らかの制度や環境の中にとどまっている。

覚え方のコツ Memory Tip

reside「居住する」に三人称単数現在の -s が付いた形で、発音は /rɪˈzaɪdz/ と語末が /z/ になります。he/she resides in Tokyo のような改まった「住む」のほか、authority resides with someone で「権限が人に属する」と覚えます。

Start with reside, a formal alternative to live, and add -s for a third-person singular subject: she resides or he resides. The ending is pronounced /z/, giving /rɪˈzaɪdz/. For the literal meaning, learn resides in with a place: “She resides in Tokyo.” For the figurative meaning, learn resides with or resides in: decision-making power may reside with a manager, while value may reside in an idea. The image behind the word is remaining settled in one place. Unlike stays, resides usually suggests a home or an established location rather than a short visit.

例文

She resides in Tokyo with her family.

彼女は家族と一緒に東京に住んでいる。

The power of decision resides with the manager.

決定権はマネージャーにある。

He resides in a quiet village near the mountains.

彼は山の近くの静かな村に住んでいる。

resides の語源・成り立ち Etymology

ラテン語 residēre(座り続ける)から。re-(後ろに)+ sedēre(座る)の合成語で、ある場所に腰を落ち着ける意。関連語: sedentary(座りがちな)、president(前に座る者=議長)。「座り留まる」が「居住する」に発展した。

Resides is the third-person singular present form of reside. Reside came through French from Latin residere, formed from re- and sedere, “to sit.” Its literal sense was to remain sitting or stay behind, which developed into the idea of dwelling permanently in a place. The same Latin root relating to sitting appears in words such as sedentary and preside. English adds -s to reside to form resides.
