词源
parson (n.)late 13c., person (late 12c. as a surname), “parish priest” (later often applied to a clergyman in general), from Anglo-French and Old French persone “curate, parson, holder of Church office” (12c.), from Medieval Latin persona “parson” (see person). The reason for the ecclesiastical use is obscure; it might refer to the “person” legally holding church property, or it may be an abbreviation of persona ecclesiae “person of the church.” The shift to a spelling with -a- begins late 13c. in surnames. Related: Parsonic.  Parson’s nose “the rump of a fowl” is attested by 1834.Related entries & more

下面是词源的翻译(机器翻译比较难翻,参考着看)
parson (n.)late 13c.,人(12c.晚期作为姓氏),“教区牧师”(后来通常用于一般的牧师),源自英法语和古法语 persone “牧师,牧师,教会的持有者办公室”(12c.),源自中世纪拉丁语角色“parson”(见人)。教会使用的原因尚不清楚。它可能指的是合法持有教会财产的“人”,也可能是 persona ecclesiae“教会的人”的缩写。拼写为 -a- 的转变始于 13c 后期。在姓氏中。相关:帕索尼克。帕森斯的鼻子“鸡的臀部”已于 1834 年得到证实。相关条目及更多
