QUÉ SIGNIFICA FOUNTAIN EN INGLÉS

Fuente

Fountain

Una fuente (del latín "fons", una fuente o fuente) es una pieza de arquitectura que vierte agua en una cuenca o la hace chocar en el aire para suministrar agua potable y / o para una decoración o dramática efecto. Las fuentes eran originales puramente funcionales, conectadas a manantiales o acueductos y se utiliza para proporcionar agua potable y agua para bañarse y lavarse a los residentes de ciudades, pueblos y aldeas. Hasta finales del siglo XIX, la mayoría de las fuentes funcionaban por gravedad, y necesitaban una fuente de agua más alta que la fuente, como un depósito o acueducto, para hacer que el agua fluyera o chorreara al aire. Además de proporcionar agua potable, las fuentes se utilizaron para la decoración y para celebrar a sus constructores. Las fuentes romanas estaban decoradas con máscaras de animales o héroes de bronce o piedra. En la Edad Media, los diseñadores de jardines árabes y musulmanes utilizaron fuentes para crear versiones en miniatura de los jardines del paraíso. El rey Luis XIV de Francia utilizó fuentes en los jardines de Versalles para ilustrar su poder sobre la naturaleza.

A fountain (from the Latin "fons" (genitive "fontis"), a source or spring) is a piece of architecture which pours water into a basin or jets it into the air to supply drinking water and/or for a decorative or dramatic effect. Fountains were originally purely functional, connected to springs or aqueducts and used to provide drinking water and water for bathing and washing to the residents of cities, towns and villages. Until the late 19th century most fountains operated by gravity, and needed a source of water higher than the fountain, such as a reservoir or aqueduct, to make the water flow or jet into the air. In addition to providing drinking water, fountains were used for decoration and to celebrate their builders. Roman fountains were decorated with bronze or stone masks of animals or heroes. In the Middle Ages, Moorish and Muslim garden designers used fountains to create miniature versions of the gardens of paradise. King Louis XIV of France used fountains in the Gardens of Versailles to illustrate his power over nature.
