Shah, as one might think, is a borrowing into English of the Persian title for the monarch of that country.The Persian wordshāh was also a term used in chess, a game played in Persia long before it was introduced to Europe.One saidshāh as a warning when the opponent's king was under attack. The Persian word in this sense,after passing through Arabic,probably Old Spanish, and then Old French,came into Middle English aschek about seven hundred years ago. Chess itself comes from a plural form of the Old French word that gave us the word check. Checkmate, the next stage after check, goes back to the Arabic phraseshāh māt, meaning "the king is stymied.”Through a complex development having to do with senses that evolved from the notion of checking the king,check came to mean something used to ensure accuracy or authenticity. One such means was a counterfoil, a part of a check, for example,retained by the issuer as documentation of a transaction.Check first meant "counterfoil" and then came to mean anything,such as a bill or bank draft, with a counterfoil—or eventually even without one.单词check ， chess 和 shah 是互相关联的。 Shah 就象有人可能想象的那样， 是英语里的外来词，原指波斯国王的称号。波斯词语shah 也是国际象棋中的术语， 国际象棋在被引进欧洲之前早就在波斯流传。当对手的“国王”受到攻击时我们说shah 作为一种警告。 这个意义的波斯单词，通过阿拉伯语，可能还有古西班牙语和后来的古法语，大约在七百年前被收入中世纪英语中chek 。 Chess 本身来自于古法语 check 的复数形式。 Checkmate ，是 check 的下一步， 来自于阿拉伯短语shah mat， 意思是“国王进退两难”。从对“国王”将军这个概念演化而来，check 的含义经历了复杂的发展过程，它后来指用以确保准确性或真实性的某种东西。 例如，其中一个含义是指作为支票的一部分的存根，由签发支票的人保留作为交易的单据。Check 最初是指“存根”， 后来指任何有存根的东西，如帐单或银行汇票等，最后甚至指没有存根的东西〔creep〕To have a tingling sensation, made by or as if by things moving stealthily:发痒：觉得有东西或似乎有东西在缓缓移动而产生震颤的感觉：〔stubble〕Something resembling this material, especially the short bristly hairs on a man's unshaven face.残梗状东西：似花的东西，尤指男人未刮脸时的须茬〔satiate〕Gorge refers principally to greedy overstuffing with food: Gorge 主要指过于贪婪地吃东西： 〔ring〕A circular band used for carrying, holding, or containing something:吊环：用于携带，抓住或容纳东西的圆环：〔rasp〕To utter in a grating voice.发刮擦声：发出刮东西的声音〔cellar〕A room or enclosed space used for storage, usually beneath the ground or under a building.地窖：通常在地面下或建筑物下用于储藏东西的房间或封闭空间〔tide〕Something that fluctuates like the waters of the tide:潮流，趋势：像潮水一样变化的东西：〔job〕The object to be worked on.东西，活计：为其进行工作的事物〔spacious〕roomy pockets. 能装很多东西的衣袋 〔giveaway〕The act or an instance of giving something away, especially the appropriation of natural resources or public lands for private gain.让渡，转让：送出某种东西的动作或例子，尤指为了个人利益占用自然资源或公共的土地〔sacrifice〕The act of offering something to a deity in propitiation or homage, especially the ritual slaughter of an animal or a person.献祭：为表赎罪或崇敬而向神供奉东西的行为，尤指杀死动物或人而祭祀 |
