Английская Википедия:Hearts (suit)
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Redirect Шаблон:Infobox card suit Hearts (Шаблон:Hearts, Шаблон:German Hearts) (Шаблон:Lang-fr, Шаблон:Lang-de) is one of the four playing card suits in a deck of French-suited and German-suited playing cards. However, the symbol is slightly different: Symbol: Herz is used in a French deck while Symbol: Herz is used in a German deck.
This suit was invented in 15th century Germany and is a survivor from a large pool of experimental suit signs created to replace the Latin suits. The French design was created around 1480 when French suits were invented and was a simplified version of the existing German suit symbol for hearts in a German-suited pack.[1]
In Swiss-suited playing cards, the equivalent suit is Roses, typically with the following suit symbol: Файл:RosendeutschschweizerBlatt.svg.
Name
In Bridge, for which in Germany the French deck is common, it is called by its French name, Шаблон:Lang. In games using German-suited cards the suit of Hearts is often called "Red" (Шаблон:Lang), e.g. the Unter of Hearts would be the "Red Unter" (Rotunter or Rot-Unter) and the Nine of Hearts the "Red Nine" (Rotneun or Rot-Neun). In the game of Watten, the King of Hearts is the highest Trump. In Tiến Lên, Hearts are the highest-ranked suit.
The origin of the term "heart" to describe the symbol, which only very marginally resembles a true heart, is not known.[2] In general, equivalents in other languages also mean "heart".
