Eunuch goes back to the Greek wordeunoukhos, "a castrated person employed to take charge of the women of a harem and act as chamberlain.”The Greek word is derived fromeunē, "bed,” and ekhein, "to keep.” A eunuch, of course, was ideally suited to guard the bedchamber of women.eunuch 这个词不象人们所想的那样源自于阉人的手术, 而是源自于它所起的作用。 Eunuch 可追溯到古希腊的词eunoukhos , 意为“一个负责侍候后宫女眷,并作为国王内侍的被阉割了的人”。古希腊的词源出于eune, 意为“床”,和 ekhein “照料”, 一个太监当然是保卫女眷卧室的最理想的人〔captain〕A restaurant employee who is in charge of the waiters and usually attends to table seating.侍者领班:餐馆的雇员,掌管所有的侍者,通常侍候客人入座 |
