释义 | 〔lieutenant〕What is the connection between a lieutenant governor and a lieutenant in the army?In the etymology of the wordlieutenant, at least, the connection lies in their holding a place;that is, the wordlieutenant is from an Old French compound made up of lieu, "place,” and tenant, "holding,” the present participle of the verb tenir, "to hold.” The word in Old French and the borrowed Middle English wordlieutenant, first recorded near the end of the 14th century, referred to a person who acted for another as a deputy.This usage has survived,for example, in our termlieutenant governor, the deputy of the governor and the one who replaces the governor if need be. In military parlancelieutenant appears by itself as well as in compounds such asfirst lieutenant and second lieutenant, which muddy the water a bit,but the original notion of the word in military usage was that the officer it referred to ranked below the next one upand could replace him if need be.A lieutenant in the U.S. Army could thus step into the shoes of a captain.副州长和陆军中尉之间有什么联系?就lieutenant 这个单词的词源来说, 至少,联系在于他们都拥有一个位置;也就是说,lieutenant 这个词源于一个古法语复合词,这个词由 lieu (“场所”)和 tenant (“拥有”)及动词 tenir (“持有,拥有”)的现在分词组成。 古法语的这个词和借用的中古英语词lieutenant 的最早记录出现在14世纪末, 该词指的是代理别人做某事的人。这种用法至今仍使用,例如,我们的短语lieutenant governor(副州长) 州长的副职和必要时代替州长的人。 在军事用语中,lieutenant 单独出现, 也在复合词如first lieutenant 及 second lieutenants 中出现, 这把情况搞复杂了一些,但这个词在军事用语中的原始意义是它所指的军官低于上一级军官,在必要时可以取代他。因此,美国陆军中的一名中尉可以取代上尉〔retraction〕The act of recanting or disavowing a previously held statement or belief.撤回,收回:放弃或否定早先持有的声明或信仰的行为〔possess〕To cause to own, hold, or master something, such as property or knowledge:使拥有,使掌握:使拥有、使持有或使掌握,如财产或知识:〔credential〕The participlecredentialed is well established in reference to certified teachers and some other professions, but its more general use to mean "possessing professional or expert credentials" is still widely considered jargon.The sentenceThe board heard testimony from a number of credentialed witnesses was unacceptable to 85 percent of the Usage Panel. 其分词形式credentialed 用于指合格的教师和一些其他专业人员的用法早已被接受, 但它作为“持有专业或专家证书的”这种更通用的用法却仍需慎思后才能使用。“委员会听取了一些资格证人的证词” 这句话在85%的用法调查中都不被接受 〔slant〕The story was slanted in favor of the strikers.这个故事持有对罢工者支持的态度〔pledge〕Something given or held as security to guarantee payment of a debt or fulfillment of an obligation.抵押物:作为保证偿还债务或履行义务的担保而给予或持有的东西〔pledgor〕A person who deposits property as a pledge.设定质权者:持有作为抵押的财产的人〔Lincoln〕First Lady of the United States (1861-1865) as the wife of President Abraham Lincoln.
