16世纪时，意大利威尼斯市政府首次发行了一份官方报刊，每月出版一词。当时用一枚叫做gazeta的威尼斯小铜币即可购买一份这种报刊，因此威尼斯人将其称为gazzetta。该词进入法语后写作gazette。法国发行的第一份报纸就叫做Gazette de France（《法国报》）。后来，英语也吸取了该词，并保留其法语拼写方式，用来表示“公报”、“时事报”。许多早期的官方报刊都使用gazette这种名称，现在依然主要应用于报刊名称中。=gazette[g?'zet]n报纸，公报vt.在报纸上刊登来自意大利威尼斯方言gazeta，喜鹊，拟声词，模仿喜鹊的叫声，同时也指威尼斯当地的小铜币。与报纸的联系存在争议，一种说法是把报童比做小喜鹊，另一种说法是一张报纸刚好值一小铜币而得名。

小知识
A newspaper or journal can be called a gazette. In fact, many English-language newspapers from coast-to-coast include the name gazette in their title, from The Daily Hampshire Gazette in Massachusetts to the Mariposa Gazette in California.
The noun gazette comes from the Italian word gazzetta. In the 1600s, there was a Venetian news sheet that became known as a gazeta because it cost a gazeta, a small-valued Venetian coin. Other experts suggest that the word comes from gazza, a kind of bird — specifically a chattering magpie — that would spread news. A related word is gazetteer, which is a dictionary of geographical names.
