释义 | 〔comrade〕A comrade can be socially or politically close,a closeness that is found at the etymological heart of the wordcomrade. In Spanish the Latin wordcamara, with its Late Latin meaning "chamber, room,” was retained, and the derivativecamarada, with the sense "roommates, especially barrack mates,” was formed. Camarada then came to have the general sense "companion.” English borrowed the word from Spanish and French,Englishcomrade being first recorded in the 16th century. The political sense ofcomrade, now associated with Communism, had its origin in the late-19th-century use of the word as a title by socialists and communists in order to avoid such forms of address asmister. This usage, which originated during the French Revolution,is first recorded in English in 1884.同志在社会或政治关系上是亲密的,这种亲密的意思可以从comrade 的词源中找到。 在西班牙语中,拉丁词camara 仍保留有它的拉丁语意思“小房间,房间”, 同时出现了它的派生词camarada 意思是“室友,尤指同营房的战友”。 接着Camarada 具有了一般“同伴”的意思。 英语从西班牙语和法语中借用了这个词,英语中comrade 第一次出现是在16世纪。 comrade 的政治意义现在是与共产主义相联的, 最初在19世纪末,它是作为社会主义者或共产主义者的前称以区别于mister(先生) 一词的。 这种用法起源于法国大革命时期,第一次在英语中出现则是在1884年。〔friend〕A person with whom one is allied in a struggle or cause; a comrade.同志,同事:和你一起为同一件事而联合共同奋斗的人;同志〔pal〕Pal, like buddy and chum, has an informal,thoroughly "American" ring to it.One might think thatpal had been a fixture in the English language forever. In fact,pal is a fairly recent acquisition from a rather exotic source—the language of the Gypsies. First recorded in English in the 17th century,pal was borrowed from Romany, the Indic language of the Gypsies,specifically from a word meaning "brother, comrade,”which occurs asphal in the Romany spoken in England andphral in the Romany spoken in Europe. Gypsies speak an Indic languagebecause they originally migrated to Europe from the border region between Iran and India.In other Indic languages we find related words meaning "brother,”such as Hindustanibhāi, Prakritbhāda or bhāyā, and Sanskrit bhrātā. All these terms trace their ancestry to the same Indo-European word that our wordbrother does. Pal 与 buddy 和 chum 一样, 都有不正式的,完全“美国式”的圈。一个人可能会认为pal 永远是英国语言中的固定词。 但实际上,pal 是最近从外来语源——吉普赛语言中获得的。 最早在17世纪被记录于英语中,pal 借自吉普赛语, 即吉普赛人说的印度语言,特别是从意为“兄弟,同志”的一个词而来,它在英格兰的吉普赛语中写成phal, 在欧洲所讲的吉普赛语中写成phral 。 因为吉普赛人最初是从伊朗和印度的边界地区移居到欧洲的,因此他们讲一种印度语言,在另一种印度语言里我们可以找到意为“兄弟”的相关词,如兴都斯坦的bhai, 帕拉克里语的bhada 或 bhaya 以及梵语的 bhrata 。 所有这些词和我们的词语brother 一样都可追溯到相同的印欧词源 〔comrade〕A person who shares one's interests or activities; a friend or companion.同志:与别人共享利益或一起参加活动的人;朋友或伴友〔buddy〕Friend or comrade; chum. Used as a form of familiar address, especially for a man or boy:兄弟:朋友或同志;兄弟。用作一种熟悉的称呼,尤其是对男人或男孩:〔fellow〕A jolly good fellow might or might not be the ideal business associate,but the ancestor of our wordfellow definitely referred to a business partner. Fellow, borrowed into English from Old Norse,is related to the Old Icelandic wordfēlagi, meaning "a partner or shareholder of any kind.”Old Icelandicfēlagi is derived from fēlag, "partnership,” a compound made up offē, "livestock, property, money,” and lag, "a laying in order" and "fellowship.” The notion of putting one's property together lies behind the senses offēlagi meaning "partner" and "consort.”In Old Icelandicfēlagi also had the general sense "fellow, mate, comrade,” whichfellow has as well, indicating perhaps that most partnerships turned out all right for speakers of Old Icelandic.极好的伙伴可能是但也可能不是理想的商业伙伴,但fellow 这个词的前身确实是指商业伙伴。 Fellow 从古挪威语中借入英语,与古冰岛词felagi 有关, 意思是“任何一种形式的伙伴或股东”。古冰岛的felagi 源于 felag, “伙伴关系,” 一个由fe “家畜,财产,钱,”和 lag, “整齐的布置”和“伙伴关系” 组成的合成词。 将某人的财产放在一起的概念隐藏在felagi 的意义中, 意思是“伙伴”和“同事”。在古冰岛语中felagi 也有概括的含义“伙伴,同事,同志”, 这些意思fellow 也有, 暗示着也许大多数同伴关系对讲古冰岛语的人来说结果都不错〔camaraderie〕from camarade [comrade] 源自 camarade [同志] 〔camaraderie〕Goodwill and lighthearted rapport between or among friends; comradeship.同志关系:两个朋友或多个朋友之间的良好和平淡的关系;同志〔sidekick〕A close companion or comrade.密友:关系密切的朋友或同志〔collogue〕from Latin colligāre [to collect] influenced by Old French collegue [colleague] * see colleague 源自 拉丁语 colligāre [收集] 受 古法语 collegue的影响 [同志] * 参见 colleague〔companion〕A person who accompanies or associates with another; a comrade.同伴;同事:陪伴或伴随他人的人;同志〔compeer〕A comrade, companion, or associate.同志、同伴或朋友 |
