单词 | 救命 |
释义 | 〔mayday〕From French m'aidez [help me!] 源自 法语 m'aidez [救命] 〔mayday〕"Mayday, mayday!” comes the international distress signal over the radio,and nobody stops to ask why the first of May is being mentioned at a time of crisis.Mayday, in fact, has nothing to do with the first of May. Instead, it is a spelling that represents the pronunciation of Frenchm'aidez, "help me,” or the latter part of the phrase venez m'aider, "come help me,” either of which are quite appropriate at such a critical juncture.“救命,救命!”无线电接收机中传来国际遇险呼救信号,总有人询问为何在危急时刻使用五月的第一天作为信号。实际上,Mayday 和五月份的第一天没有任何关系。 相反,它只是和法语中m'aidez “帮助我”或短语 venez m'aider “来帮助我”的后半部分的读音相同的一种拼写, 均适用于指紧要关头 |
