短释义：
The meaning of the Latin word tenere, was “to hold to a course.” Then the Old French took the word tenour in the 14th Century, giving it the meaning of “sense,” or a general feeling of a comment. But that same century, the original meaning resurfaced when the word entered the musical lexicon as the Italian tenore, or tenor, the name given to the high male voice because that was the voice that carried, or “held on to” the melody.
将次中音视为音调 – 在音乐中，它是人声或次中音萨克斯管等乐器中男中音和中音之间的音域。它也是口头评论的“语气”或含义。

拉丁语 tenere 的意思是“坚持路线”。然后，古法语在 14 世纪采用了 tenour 这个词，赋予它“意义”的意思，或者评论的一般感觉。但在同一世纪，当这个词作为意大利男高音或男高音进入音乐词典时，其原始含义重新出现，这是对高亢男性声音的称呼，因为这是承载或“保持”旋律的声音。

词源：
tenor (n.)c. 1300, tenour, “general meaning, prevailing course, purpose, drift,” of a thought, saying, etc., from Old French tenor “substance, contents, meaning, sense; tenor part in music” (13c. Modern French teneur), from Latin tenorem (nominative tenor) “a course,” originally “continuance, uninterrupted course, a holding on,” from tenere “to hold” (see tenet).
In English, the musical sense of “highest adult male voice” is attested from late 14c.; it is so-called because the tenor’s part carried the “sustained melody” (canto fermo) in medieval choral music. Medieval Latin used tenor literally for “chief melody,” and the word was extended to the voice to which that part was assigned.
The meaning “singer with a tenor voice” is attested from late 15c. As an adjective, “of or pertaining to the (musical) tenor,” by 1520s.Related entries & more
下面是词源的翻译（机器翻译比较难翻，参考着看）
男高音 (n.)c. 1300, tenour，“思想、说法等的一般含义、普遍的过程、目的、倾向”，源自古法语 tenor“实质、内容、意义、感觉；音乐中的男高音部分”（13c. 现代法语 tenur） ，源自拉丁语 tenorem（主格男高音）“一个过程”，最初是“持续、不间断的过程、坚持”，源自 tenere“保持”（参见信条）。在英语中，“最高的成年男性声音”的音乐意义从14世纪晚期就得到了证实；之所以如此称呼，是因为男高音的声部带有中世纪合唱音乐中的“持续旋律”（canto fermo）。中世纪拉丁语使用男高音字面意思是“主旋律”，这个词被扩展到该部分所分配的声音。 “具有男高音嗓音的歌手”的含义从 15 世纪末开始得到证实。作为形容词，“属于（音乐）男高音或与之相关的”，到 1520 年代为止。相关条目及更多
