Because "Poor Robert" was confused with "Poor Richard,”the story has often been erroneously attributed to Benjamin Franklin.The idiom itself is an Americanism—a word or expression originating in the United States.It was at first restricted to political contexts,but quotations from James Joyce ("Skin-the-Goat . . . evidently with an axe to grind, was airing his grievances")and George Bernard Shaw ("distinguished statesmen of different nations . . . each with a national axe to grind") attest that the phrase has traveled abroad and,as we know only too well, is no longer found only in political contexts.为了理解成语ax to grind 的出处， 我们需要知道grind 意思是“磨尖”。 这个短语据说出自19世纪旅行家查尔斯·麦纳（别名穷罗伯特）所写的关于一个似乎很友善的人的故事，他能够奉承地劝说一名男孩为他翻过一块磨光石。这个传说第一次出现在1810年9月7日宾夕法尼亚州的卢泽恩，在1810年9月7日题为“谁将推翻磨石”的联邦制拥护者 中提到， 之后1815年又在名为作家穷·罗伯特文集 一书中提到。 因为"poor Robert和"poor Richard"易被弄混淆，这个故事经常被错误地认为是本杰明·弗兰克林创作的。这个成语本身是美国式的词或表达源于美国。一开始被限于在政治性言词的情况中使用，但是从以下的引文表明这个短语已广泛地传播，一个是引于詹姆斯·琼斯（“这个显然别有企图的披着人皮的狼，正在诉苦”），另一个引自乔治·萧伯纳（“辨认出不同国家的人…每个国家都有自己国家的打算”），正如我们所熟知的，它不会只在政治性言论的上下文间才可以找到的〔courtly〕Flattering in an insincere way; obsequious.以不真诚的方式奉承的；谄媚的〔coax〕To persuade or try to persuade by pleading or flattery; cajole.劝诱，哄骗：通过请求或奉承来说服或企图说服；哄骗〔court〕To attempt to gain the favor of by attention or flattery:企图获得：通过注意或奉承而试图引起…的好感：〔bland〕Latin blandus [caressing, flattering] * see mel- 1拉丁语 blandus [爱抚的，奉承的] * 参见 mel- 1〔courtier〕One who seeks favor, especially by insincere flattery or obsequious behavior.奉承者，谄媚者：寻求好感的人，尤指通过不真诚的奉承和殷勤的举止〔lure〕Inveigle implies winning over by coaxing, flattery, or artful talk: Inveigle 暗指通过哄骗、奉承或花言巧语而达到目的： 〔sugary〕sugary compliments; a sugary smile.奉承；甜蜜的一笑〔parasite〕One who lives off and flatters the rich; a sycophant.奉承逗乐的食客：以奉承富人为生的人；趋炎附势者〔slaver〕To behave in an obsequious manner; fawn.See Synonyms at fawn 1恭维，奉承：以谄媚的方式做事；奉承 参见 fawn1〔bootlick〕To behave in a servile or obsequious manner.See Synonyms at fawn 1巴结或奉承：以屈从或奉承的举止来表现 参见 fawn1〔canoodle〕To win over or convince by cajoling or flattering; wheedle:诱服：通过哄骗或奉承来赢得或劝服；以甜言蜜语哄骗：〔puff〕An approving or flattering recommendation.拍马屁：赞同或奉承的推荐〔buttery〕Marked by effusive and insincere flattery.拍马屁的，献媚奉承的：以过分地且不是出于真心的奉承为特征的〔cozy〕To try to get on friendly or intimate terms; ingratiate oneself:尽力维持友好或亲密关系；奉承…：〔blandish〕To coax by flattery or wheedling; cajole.巴结，讨好：用奉承或讨好的方式劝诱；哄骗〔honey〕Sugary or ingratiating words; flattery.甜言蜜语；奉承 |
