Elisabeth Murray, the granddaughter and biographer of James Murray, points out,"The problem of what scientific words to include was a continuing one, and James Murray was always under pressure—from his advisers . . . who thought the emphasis should be on words from good literature and from those in the [Oxford University] Press who wanted to save cost and time—not to include scientific words of recent origin.”In 1902 no less a person than Edward VII had his appendix removed,and his coronation was postponed because of the operation.Appendicitis hence came into widespread use and has remained so, thereby pointing up the lexicographer's difficult task of selecting the new words that people will look for in their dictionaries.尽管appendicitis 这个词于1885年就已使用, 在这一年出版的牛津英语词典 的“安塔族-增长论”这一分册应包括有这个词, 但在牛津皇家医学院教授亨利·温特华斯·阿克兰的建议下,主编詹姆斯·莫雷删掉了这个“拗口的医学和外科用词”。正如詹姆斯·莫雷的孙女和传记作者K·M·伊莉莎白·莫雷指出的那样, “应包括什么科学用语是一个长期以来的问题,詹姆斯·莫雷经常遇到来自他的顾问的压力…他们认为重点应放到从好文学作品中收来的词汇上,还受到来自出版社的压力,他们为了节约成本和时间而不愿收录新近的科学词汇”。1902年恰恰正是爱德华七世割除了阑尾,他的加冕典礼也因为这次手术而延迟。Appendicitis 一词因此得到了普遍的使用并保持至今, 这也表明了词典编纂者在选择人们要查找的新单词时所面临的艰难任务〔Zapotec〕from Nahuatl tzapotēcah [pl. of] tzapotēcatl [person from Tzapotlan] 源自 那瓦特语 tzapotēcah tzapotēcatl的复数 [来自于萨波特克兰的人] 〔elusive〕"an invisible cabal of conspirators, each more elusive than the archterrorist[himself] ” (David Kline)“一个看不见的小阴谋集团,每一个都比恐怖主义集团[本身] 更难于被发现” (戴维·克兰)〔Liederkranz〕A trademark for a soft cheese resembling a mild Limburger.利德克兰兹牌乳酪:象林堡软干酪的一种软质奶酪的商标名〔swell〕"The din in front swelled to a tremendous chorus"(Stephen Crane)“前方的噪音逐渐增强为一大片齐声的喧哗”(斯蒂芬·克兰)〔turn〕"He thought some friend had done him an ill turn"(Stephen Crane)“他认为有个朋友对他有不利的举动”(斯蒂芬·克兰)〔Kline〕American abstract expressionist painter many of whose works are characterized by bold, controlled black strokes on a white field.克兰,弗朗兹·约瑟夫:(1910-1962) 美国抽象派表现主义画家,其作品以白色背景上的几笔醒目的、压抑的黑色为特征〔grumble〕"The governed will always find something to grumble about"(Crane Brinton)“被统治者总会抱怨这个那个”(克兰·布林顿) |
