In Middle English, for example, one finds the formshabbe, "to have,” and nabbe, "not to have.” Hab or nab, or simply hab nab, thus meant "get or lose, hit or miss,” and the varianthob-nob also meant "hit or miss.” Used in the drinking phrase,hob or nob would have probably meant "give or take,” and from a drinking situationhob nob spread to other forms of chumminess. 与社会地位比我们高的人亲切交谈有时候是一种随随便便的行为，这种事实是有语源学上的根据的。动词hobnob 的初义为“一起喝酒”， 并有许多变体，如hob or nob ， hob-a-nob 或 hob and nob ， 其中第一个首见于1763年的记录中。这种词组构成反应了类似词组中的动词来源，他们都用于两个人互相敬酒的情况。这种词组如此使用的原因可能因为hob 是 hab 的变体， 而nob 是 nab 的变体，而且这两者又可能是 have 和其否定式的变体。 例如人们在中古英语中可发现habbe “有”和 nabbe “没有”的形式。 Hab or nab 或简作 hab nab， 就指“得到或失去，成功或不成功”， 其变体hob-nob 也有同样的意思“成功或不成功”。 在与饮酒有关的词汇中，hob or nob 可能指“自饮或敬酒，” 并从饮酒情况下使用的hob nob 扩展到其他亲密的场合 〔anomaly〕"Both men are anomalies: they have . . . likable personalities but each has made his reputation as a heavy"(David Pauly)“两个人都很特别：他们有…相似的个性但每个人都有他自己的性格”(戴维·保利)〔spontaneous〕The two suddenly embraced in a spontaneous gesture of affection.两个人因爱而突然自发地拥抱在一起。〔handshake〕The grasping of hands by two people, as in greeting or leave-taking.握手：在见面或离别时两个人握住彼此的手〔conflict〕Combat most commonly implies an encounter between two armed persons or groups: Combat 通常指两个人或军队之间的遭遇战： 〔wishbone〕[From the superstition that when two people pull the bone apart a wish will be fulfilled for the person who retains the longer piece] [从迷信“当两个人共同折断一块骨头，持较长的一段的人就会如愿以偿”而来] 〔couple〕Two people together.一对：在一起的两个人〔couple〕When used to refer to two people who function socially as a unit,as ina married couple, the wordcouple may take either a singular or a plural verb, depending on whether the members are considered individually or collectively: 当用来表示作为一个单位来行使社会功能的两个人时，如在一对已婚夫妇 中， 单词couple 既可以带单数动词也可以带复数动词， 这取决于两个人是被单个或集体地看待的： 〔so〕But this rule is best regarded as a stylistic preference;in such clausesthat is frequently omitted even by reputable writers in formal contexts, as inThey will have to double up so (or so that ) room can be found for the new arrivals. · Bothso and so that are acceptably used to introduce clauses that state a result or consequence: 但是这条规则最好被认为是格式上的偏好。在这样的句子中，即使是很著名的作家也在正式的文章中经常省略that ， 如在句子他们将不得不两个人睡一张床，以便 （或者 so that ) 新到的人能找到住房 。 So 和 so that 都可以被接受用来引入陈述一个结果或后果的从句： 〔separate〕two people who held separate views on the issue.对这个问题持个别观点的两个人 |
