Professional sport is another cup of tea altogether.娱乐运动使人放松。专业运动需要认真对待〔amateur〕When Mrs. T.W. Atkinson remarked in her 1863Recollections of the Tartar Steppes and their Inhabitants, "I am no amateur of these melons,” she usedamateur in a sense unfamiliar to us. That sense, "a lover, an admirer,” is, however, clearly descended from the senses of the word's ultimate Latin source,amātor, "lover, devoted friend, devotee, enthusiastic pursuer of an objective,” and from its immediate Latin-derived French source,amateur, with a similar range of meanings. First recorded in English in 1784 with the sense in which Mrs. Atkinson used it,amateur is found in 1786 with a meaning more familiar to us, "a person who engages in an art, for example, as a pastime rather than as a profession,” a sense that had already developed in French.Given the limitations of doing something as an amateur,it is not surprising that the word is soon after recorded in the disparaging sensewe still use to refer to someone who lacks professional skill or ease in performance.当T.W.阿特金森夫人在她1863年出版的塔塔·史坦普和其居民回忆录, 中提到“我并不喜欢这些瓜果”时, 她使用的amateur 是我们所不熟悉的一个意思。 可是这种“爱好者,喜爱者,”的意思显然有其正宗拉丁语来源,amator, 意思是“爱人,忠实的朋友,奉献者,对某目标热情的追求者”, 还有由拉丁语直接派生出的法语来源,amateur, 具有相似的意思。 1784年记录在英语文字中出现的这个词正是阿特金森夫人使用的意思,1786年出现的amateur 有我们更为熟悉的意思, “如一个从事艺术,把它作为一项消遣,而不是一个职业的人,”法语的词早已发展了这种意思。如果把意思限定为从事业余活动的人,这个词被记录下来后不久就有了贬义含意,也就不足为奇了,我们用它来指在表演中缺乏专业技巧或缺乏得心应手的感觉〔shop〕Also shoppe A small retail store or a specialty department in a large store. 也作 shoppe 店铺或专业零售部:一种小型零售商店或一个大商店中卖专门商品的分部〔wordsmith〕A fluent and prolific writer, especially one who writes professionally.语言艺术家:流利而多产的作家,尤指专业写作的人〔major〕To pursue academic studies in a major:主修:在一个专业里进行学术研究:〔unspecialized〕Having no special function; without specialty or specialization.非专门化的:不具有特殊的功能的;没有专业或未进行专业化的〔photography〕The art, practice, or occupation of taking and printing photographs.摄影术:拍摄和洗印照片的技术、专业或职业〔major〕A field of study chosen as an academic specialty.专业,主修课:选作学术专业的一个研究领域〔urbanologist〕A sociologist who specializes in the problems of cities and urban life.都市学专家:研究专业方向为城市问题和城市生活的社会学家〔practice〕The business of a professional person:专业:职业人员的行业:〔microsurgery〕Surgery on minute body structures or cells performed with the aid of a microscope and other specialized instruments, such as a micromanipulator.显微外科,显微手术:借助显微镜和其它专业仪器,如显微操纵器材等对微小的身体结构或细胞进行的手术〔featherweight〕A professional boxer weighing more than 118 and not more than 126 pounds (approximately 53.5-57 kilograms), heavier than a bantamweight and lighter than a lightweight.次轻量级拳击运动员:体重在118到126磅(大约53.5-67公斤)之间的专业拳击手,比最轻级拳击手重,但比轻量级选手轻〔read〕He was only sparsely read in fields outside his profession.他对自己专业以外的领域只知道一些皮毛〔canter〕Most of those who have majored in English literature,and many more besides,know that Chaucer'sCanterbury Tales were told by a group of pilgrims on their way to Canterbury to visit the shrine of England's famous martyr Thomas à Becket.Many pilgrims other than Chaucer's visited Canterbury on horse,and phrases such asCanterbury gallop, Canterbury pace, and Canterbury trot described the easy gait at which they rode to their destination. The first recorded instance of one of these phrases,Canterbury pace, is found in a work published before 1636. However, in a work written in 1631 we find a shortened form,the nounCanterbury, meaning "a canter,” and later, in 1673,the verbCanterbury, meaning "to canter.” This verb, or perhaps the noun,was further shortened, giving us the verbcanter, first recorded in 1706,and the nouncanter, first recorded in 1755. 专业是英语文学史的绝大多数人,还有许多其他的人,都知道乔叟的 坎特伯雷故事集 是由一群朝圣者在坎特伯雷的路上讲述的, 他们去那里是为了瞻仰英格兰著名的殉道士托马斯· 贝科特的神殿。除了乔叟笔下的这些朝圣者外的许多其他朝圣者也骑着马前去。一些短语,例如Canterbury gallop,Canterbury pace 和 Canterbury trot 描述了这些朝圣者在骑往他们的目的地时的缓和步态。 这些短语最早见于记录的例子Canterbury pace 发现于1636年之前出版的一部著作中。 然而,在写于1631年的一部著作中我们找到了一个缩略的形式,名词Canterbuty, 意即“慢跑”; 后来在1673年,又有了动词Canterbury, 意为“慢跑。” 这一动词,或者也许是这个名词,后来又被进一步缩写成canter, 该动词最早被记录于1706年,而名词canter 则被最早记录于1755年 〔play〕After a time-out, play resumed. The golf tournament featured expert play.暂停之后,比赛继续进行高尔夫球比赛以专业选手比赛为特色〔specialty〕A special pursuit, occupation, aptitude, or skill.See Synonyms at forte 1专业:特殊的职业、技能或技巧 参见 forte1〔foley〕A technical process by which sounds are created or altered for use in a film, video, or other electronically produced work.福雷录音:用于电影、影像或其它电子作品的音效创造与修改的专业过程〔blend〕"He has no difficulty blending his two writing careers: novels and films"(Charles E.

Since then the word has passed beyond technical useand now covers a wide variety of malfunctions and mishaps.回溯历史,尽管glitch 似乎是一个向来有用的单词, 但是直到1962年它才首次在英语中有记录,在约翰·格林著作中:“我们所采用的另一个用来描述我们的问题的词汇是‘glitch’”。格林给这个词下了为宇航员所采用的专业定义, “严格来说,glitch是指电流中电压受阻或变化。”。在这里,即使宇航员不一定是第一个引申了glitch 的含义,可是我们看到这个词是如何从它狭义的电子技术上的意义发展到更普遍的意义。 此后这个词超出了技术上的使用范围,现在可指多种功能故障和灾祸〔minor〕Of or relating to a secondary area of academic specialization.辅修的:学术专业上的第二个领域的〔factor〕A gene.
