释义 | 〔exorcise〕An oath is to be found at the etymological heart ofexorcise, a term going back to the Greek wordexorkizein, meaning "to swear in,” "to take an oath by,” "to conjure,” and "to exorcise.” Exorkizein in turn is formed from the prefixex-, "thoroughly,” and the verb horkizein, "to make one swear, administer an oath to,” derived from horkos, "oath.” Our wordexorcise is first recorded in English in a work composed possibly before the beginning of the 15th century, and in this useexorcise means "to call up or conjure spirits" rather than "to drive out spirits,” a sense first recorded in 1546.誓言在语源学中是exorcise 的基本意思, 而这个词又可以追溯到希腊语exorkizein, 后者意味着“宣誓”、“发誓”、“恳求”和“驱赶”。 Exorkizein 依次由含有“完全地”这个意思的前缀ex- 和含有“使发誓,在誓言约束下”这个意思的动词 horkizein 构成,后者源自 horkos “誓言”。 我们现在用的exorcise 最早在英文中的记录出自一本可能早于15世纪初写的一本著作中。 在当时,exorcise 通常意味着“召回灵魂”, 而不是1546年才最早记录到的“驱赶鬼魂”这个含义〔defunct〕dē- [de-] dē- [前缀,表示“完全地”] 〔flat〕Directly; completely:直接地;完全地:〔simply〕Absolutely; altogether:完全地;简直:〔exact〕Strictly and completely in accord with fact; not deviating from truth or reality:准确的,确切的:严格并完全地按照事实的;与真理或现实毫无偏离的:〔out〕To the fullest extent or degree:完全地,彻底地:达到最大限度或程度地:〔proof〕Fully or successfully resistant; impervious. Often used in combination:耐…的,防…的:完全地或成功地抵制的;不能穿透的。常用于合成词中:〔heartily〕Thoroughly; completely:彻低地;完全地:〔big〕In a thorough or unmistakable way; emphatically:断然地:完全地或确切无疑地;显著地:〔fad〕Although we do not know for certain the origin offad, first recorded in 1834with the sense "whim, crotchet,”we can suggest one possibility.In 1754, 80 years before this occurrence offad, we find an instance of the wordfidfad, meaning "a fussy person":"The youngest . . . is, in everything she does, an absolute fidfad.”Fidfad is found in the latter part of the 19th century with the sense "small detail, frill,” and the adjectivefidfad, meaning "frivolous, fussy, petty,” is recorded in 1830.Fad could thus be a shortened form of fidfad, itself shortened from fiddle-faddle. 尽管我们不能确定fad 的起源, 它于1834年首次被记录,用于表达“怪念头,异常态度或习惯”这一意思,我们仍可以提出一种可能。在1754年,比fad 的出现早80年, 我们发现了一个词例fidfad, 表示“一个小题大作的人”:“这个年轻人…所做的一切事情都完全地小题大作。”在19世纪下半叶,fidfad 被发现有“小的细节,饰边”的意思, 而且形容词fidfad 还表示“无用的,大惊小怪的,不重要的”的意思, 于1830年被记录。因此Fad 可能是 fiddle-faddle 被缩写为 fidfad 后的简便形式 〔partly〕In part or in some degree; not completely.部分的:部分地或在某种程度上地;不完全地〔bewilder〕The wordbewilder is probably used much more commonly in its figurative sense "to confuse" than in its literal sense "to cause to lose one's bearings; disorient.” Yet the latter sense is most likely the clue to the original source of this word.Bewilder, first recorded in 1684, is made up of the prefix be-, here meaning "completely,” and the verb wilder, meaning "to cause to lose one's way,” first found in 1613. Wilder may in turn be a back-formation from wilderness, a much older word than wilder. Users of English might have erroneously thought thatwilderness was derived from an older verb wilder, which they then used with reference to the loss of one's way that can occur in a wilderness.单词bewilder 大概多用其比喻意义“使迷惑”,而少用其字面意义“使失去方向;使迷失方向”。 虽然后者更接近这个词的本意。Bewilder 一词于1684年首次有文字记载,由前缀 be- 这里意为“完全地”和1613年首次发现的意为“使迷路”的动词 wilder 组成。 Wilder 可能从 wilderness 反演而来,一个比 wilder 古老得多的词。 英语使用者可能误以为wilderness 是从更古老的动词 wilder 产生的, 于是他们把wilderness与可能发生在荒野中的迷路联系起来〔inexpugnable〕expugnābilis [capable of being overcome] from expugnāre ex- [completely] * see ex- pugnāre [to fight] * see impugn expugnābilis [能够被征服] 源自 expugnāre ex- [完全地] * 参见 ex- pugnāre [战斗] * 参见 impugn〔utterly〕Completely; absolutely; entirely.全然;完全地;彻底地〔even〕To a degree that extends; fully:完全地:至某一程度地;完全地:〔delineate〕dē- [de-] dē- [前缀,表示“完全地”] 〔circumnavigate〕To proceed completely around:环航:进行完全地环绕:〔bodacious〕Completely; extremely.完全地;极度地〔well〕Entirely; fully:完全地;充分地:〔delight〕dē- [de-] dē- [前缀,表示“完全地”] 〔hilt〕To the limit; completely:完全地:完全地;彻底地:〔court〕An extent of open ground partially or completely enclosed by walls or buildings; a courtyard.庭院,院子:部分或完全地被墙或建筑物封闭的露天空地;庭院〔very〕Truly; absolutely:真正地;完全地:〔understate〕To state with less completeness or truth than seems warranted by the facts.不充分地陈述,不完全地陈述:用比事实所证实的少的完整性和真相进行叙述〔absolutely〕Definitely and completely; unquestionably.完全地,确实地:绝对地和完全地;毫无疑问地〔Haeckel〕German philosopher and naturalist who supported Darwin's theory, mapped a genealogical tree relating all animal life, and developed the maxim "Ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny.”海克尔,厄恩斯特·亨利希:(1834-1919) 德国哲学家和博物学家,达尔文理论的支持者,他绘制了有关所有动物的系谱图,并提出了“个体生命不完全地重演其系统发生”的格言〔well〕Perfectly; clearly:完全地;清楚地:〔frump〕ver- [completely] * see per 1ver- [完全地] * 参见 per 1〔whole〕Entirely; wholly:彻底地,完全地:〔just〕Simply; certainly:完全地,简直:〔right〕Completely; quite:完全:完全地;彻底地:〔come〕To confront squarely and come to understand fully and objectively:互相理解:诚实地面对并达到完全地和客观地了解:〔exactly〕In all respects; just:完全地;全然:〔carouse〕aus [out, up] from Middle High German ūz from Old High German ūz * see ud- aus [完全地,彻底地] 源自 中古高地德语 ūz 源自 古高地德语 ūz * 参见 ud- 〔up〕Completely; entirely:完全地;彻底地:〔stiff〕To a complete extent; totally:完全地;全部地:〔continence〕Partial or complete abstention from sexual activity.See Synonyms at abstinence 节制性欲:部分或完全地避免性行为 参见 abstinence〔fairly〕Actually; fully:更确切地;完全地:〔full〕To a complete extent; entirely:完全地;充分地:〔part〕Partially; in part:不完全地:部分地;以部分形式地: |
