| 释义 | 〔TelePrompTer〕A trademark used for a device employed in television to show an actor or a speaker an enlarged line-by-line reproduction of a script, unseen by the audience. This trademark often occurs in print in lowercase:读稿机，讲词提示器：一种在电视中使用、向演员或发言人显示不为观众所见的放大的一行行台词的设备的商标。这一商标经常出现在小写印刷体中：〔prompt〕To assist (an actor or a reciter) by providing the next words of a forgotten passage; cue.提示：通过提供被遗忘段落的下几个字来帮助（一个演员或背诵者）；暗示〔film〕One indication of the gulf between us and our Victorian predecessorsis that theOxford English Dictionary fascicle containing the word film, published in 1896, does not have the sense "a motion picture.” The one hint of the future to be found among still familiar older senses of the word,such as "a thin skin or membranous coating" or "an abnormal thin coating on the cornea,”is the sense offilm used in photography, a sense referring to a coating of material, such as gelatin,that could substitute for a photographic plate or be used on a plate or on photographic paper.Thus a word that has been with us since Old English times took on this new use,first recorded in 1845,which has since developed and now refers to an art form,a sense first recorded in 1920.我们同我们维多利亚时代祖先之间的巨大隔阂的表现，就是1896年出版的《牛津英语词典》 分册包含的 film 一词没有“电影”这个含义。 在当中发现的对未来的提示仍然同这个词的旧有意思相近，例如“一层薄的皮或覆盖的薄膜”或“角膜上一种不正常的薄的覆盖物”，就是film 用于摄影的含义， 意思指覆盖物，如胶，可以代替感光板或用于感光板上或在相纸之上。因此从古英语时代出现这个新用法开始，这个词已同我们在一起了，在1845年首次被记录，随着时代发展并指一门艺术形式，这个含义于1920年才首次记录〔etymologize〕To give or suggest the etymology of a word.研究词源，阐述词源：给出或提示一个词的词源〔feed〕To supply as a cue:提示：作为线索提供：〔intimate〕To make known subtly and indirectly; hint.See Synonyms at suggest 提示：使悄悄地并且间接地知道；暗示 参见 suggest〔glimmer〕A faint manifestation or indication; a trace:迹象：模糊的提示，暗示；迹象：〔hint〕A brief or indirect suggestion; a tip:提示，注意事项：简洁或间接的建议；提示：〔prove〕To establish the truth or validity of by presentation of argument or evidence.证明：通过提示论据或证据来确立真实性或有效性〔reminiscent〕Tending to recall or suggest something in the past:令人回想的：倾向于回忆或提示往事的：〔anesthesia〕The following passage, written on November 21, 1846, by Oliver Wendell Holmes,a physician-poet and the father of the Supreme Court justice of the same name,allows us to pinpoint the entry ofanesthesia and anesthetic into English: "Every body wants to have a hand in a great discovery. All I will do is to give you a hint or two as to names—or the name—to be applied to the state produced and the agent. The state should, I think, be called ‘Anaesthesia’ [from the Greek word anaisthēsia, "lack of sensation"]. This signifies insensibility . . . The adjective will be ‘Anaesthetic.’ Thus we might say the state of Anaesthesia, or the anaesthetic state.”This citation is taken from a letter to William Thomas Green Morton,who in October of that year had successfully demonstrated the use of ether at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston.Althoughanaesthesia is recorded in Nathan Bailey's Universal Etymological English Dictionary in 1721, it is clear that Holmes really was responsible for its entry into the language.TheOxford English Dictionary has several citations for anesthesia and anesthetic in 1847 and 1848, indicating that the words gained rapid acceptance.下面是奥立佛·万德·霍姆斯写于1846年11月21的一段话。作者是个诗人医生和与其同名的最高法庭法官的父亲。这段话能使我们断定anesthesia 和 anesthetic 进入英语的背景： “每个人都希望能够参与一次伟大的发现。我所要做的是告诉你一两个提示去命名，或能被应用于某种状态的名称。我认为这种状态应该被叫做Anaesthesia ［从希腊词anaisthesia “感觉缺失”发展而来］。 这个词表示无感觉…其形容词应该是‘Anaesthetic’。这样我们可以说感觉缺失的状态或感觉缺失”。这段话是从寄给威廉·托马斯·格林·莫顿的一封信上摘录下的，莫顿同年十月在波士顿的马萨诸塞总医院曾成功使用了醚。尽管南森·巴利于1721年把anaethesia 选入了 通用英语词源词典 ， 但是很显然是霍姆斯首先把这个词引入英语。牛津英语词典 上有几处引用了1847年和1848年有 anesthesia 和 anesthetic 的句子， 说明这两个词很快就被人们所接受〔cue〕A signal, such as a word or an action, used to prompt another event in a performance, such as an actor's speech or entrance, a change in lighting, or a sound effect.提示：一种信号，如一个词或一个动作，用来提示演出中的下一个项目，如某一演员的台词或入场、灯光的变化或者音响效果〔react〕To act in response to or under the influence of a stimulus or prompting:反应，作出反应：在某种刺激或提示的影响下或针对这种影响而采取的行动：〔miscue〕To miss a stage cue.未能接上提示，接错提示〔touch〕A suggestion, hint, or tinge:提示，暗示或微染：〔suggestive〕Tending to suggest; evocative:提示的，唤起的：诱发联想的；引起回忆的：〔reference〕A note in a publication referring the reader to another passage or source.参考书目：提示读者参考另外的篇章或资料的出版物注解〔markup〕Detailed stylistic instructions written on a manuscript that is to be typeset.标示字体：写于待排版手稿上的详细文体提示〔feed〕feed lines to an actor.给演员提示台词〔speak〕To give an indication or a suggestion:指示，建议：给予暗示或提示：〔cue〕To give a cue to; signal or prompt.给…以提示；信号，暗示〔per〕Changes were made to the manuscript per the author's instructions.根据作者的提示，手稿做了改动〔tip〕A helpful hint:指点：有帮助的提示：〔umbrage〕A vague or indistinct indication; a hint.模糊的或不明显的表示；提示〔guide〕Something that serves to direct or indicate.路标：用以指引或提示的东西 |
