Elisabeth Murray, the granddaughter and biographer of James Murray, points out,"The problem of what scientific words to include was a continuing one, and James Murray was always under pressure—from his advisers . . . who thought the emphasis should be on words from good literature and from those in the [Oxford University] Press who wanted to save cost and time—not to include scientific words of recent origin.”In 1902 no less a person than Edward VII had his appendix removed,and his coronation was postponed because of the operation.Appendicitis hence came into widespread use and has remained so, thereby pointing up the lexicographer's difficult task of selecting the new words that people will look for in their dictionaries.尽管appendicitis 这个词于1885年就已使用, 在这一年出版的牛津英语词典 的“安塔族-增长论”这一分册应包括有这个词, 但在牛津皇家医学院教授亨利·温特华斯·阿克兰的建议下,主编詹姆斯·莫雷删掉了这个“拗口的医学和外科用词”。正如詹姆斯·莫雷的孙女和传记作者K·M·伊莉莎白·莫雷指出的那样, “应包括什么科学用语是一个长期以来的问题,詹姆斯·莫雷经常遇到来自他的顾问的压力…他们认为重点应放到从好文学作品中收来的词汇上,还受到来自出版社的压力,他们为了节约成本和时间而不愿收录新近的科学词汇”。1902年恰恰正是爱德华七世割除了阑尾,他的加冕典礼也因为这次手术而延迟。Appendicitis 一词因此得到了普遍的使用并保持至今, 这也表明了词典编纂者在选择人们要查找的新单词时所面临的艰难任务〔waste〕time and money consumed in litigation;消耗在诉讼中的时间和金钱;〔tense〕from Old French [time] 源自 古法语 [时间] 〔cost〕The expenditure of something, such as time or labor, necessary for the attainment of a goal.See Synonyms at price 成本:某物的花费,例如时间或劳动,是为达到某一目的而必需的 参见 price〔time〕A nonspatial continuum in which events occur in apparently irreversible succession from the past through the present to the future.时间:事件从过去到现在至未来以不可逆转的顺序发生的非空间性的延续〔assize〕The time or place of such sessions.巡回审判庭期:这样的开庭时间或地点〔leave〕left myself plenty of time.给自己充裕的时间〔absolute〕Relating to measurements or units of measurement derived from fundamental units of length, mass, and time.绝对零度标定的:度量或度量单位的,从长度、质量或时间的基本单位而得出〔Olynthus〕An ancient city of northeast Greece on the coast of Macedonia. As head of the Chalcidian League after the late fifth centuryb.c. , it opposed the threats of Athens and Sparta but was captured briefly by Athens and subjugated by Sparta in 379. Philip of Macedon destroyed the city in 348. 奥林索斯:希腊东北部,马其顿区一海滨古城。作为公元前 5世纪晚期哈尔基斯城邦联盟的首领,它曾极力与雅典和斯巴达相抗争,但在被雅典占领了一小段时间而后又于379年被斯巴达征服。马其顿国王腓力于348年摧毁了该城 〔expense〕an expense of time and energy on the project.在那个项目上时间和精力的支出〔temporary〕Lasting, used, serving, or enjoyed for a limited time.暂时的:在有限的时间内持续地、被使用、发挥作用或享受的〔plead〕plead for more time.恳求更多的时间〔on〕Used to indicate occurrence at a given time:用于表示事件发生在某指定的时间:〔thereafter〕From a specified time onward; from then on.此后:从某一特定时间开始;从那时起〔arrangement〕the arrangement of a time and place for the meeting.会议时间和地点的安排〔chronic〕from Greek khronikos [of time] 源自 希腊语 khronikos [时间的] 〔chronicle〕from khronikos [of time] * see chronic 源自 khronikos [时间的] * 参见 chronic〔time〕Within an indefinite time; eventually:最后,终于:在不定的时间内;最终:〔agin〕The spelling ofagin reflects both the raised vowel before a nasal consonant, typical of Southern dialects, and a reduced final consonant cluster, typical of several regional varieties.Agin has a wide spectrum of senses in the regional speech of those who pronounce it this way. Indeed, these regional senses are tied to the pronunciation,for standard Englishagainst does not quite capture the full implication of the assertion "I'm agin him" — that is, "opposed to him and all that he stands for.”Another regional sense recalls the original literal Old English sense of "facing; next to" (see the first four senses ofagainst in the Oxford English Dictionary), where standard English would haveby: Their house is agin the mountain.Agin may be used figuratively with regard to time chiefly in South Midland dialects,meaning "by or before (a specified time)”: "I'll be there agin daylight" (North Carolina informant in DARE).词汇agin 的拼写既反映了典型的南部方言──鼻辅音前的元音的提高, 又反映了压缩的后辅音群──几种典型的地方变体的特征。Agin 在它被如此发音的地方方言有广泛的意思。 确实,这些地域意义是和读音联系在一起的,因为标准英语中against 没有完全表达 "I'm agin him" 所隐含的意义── 即“反对他及他所代表的一切。”另外一个地域意义使人想起古英语中最初的文学用语“面对;紧靠着”(参阅《牛津英语词典》中against 的前四个释义), 而在标准英语中应该用by: 傍山而建的房屋。Agin 主要在中南部方言中可以比喻地用来表示时间,意思是“到或在…(特定时间)前”: “天亮前我可到达” (美国区域英语词典的北卡罗来纳提供资料者)〔shoot〕To spend time talking; talk idly.把时间花在谈话上;闲谈〔allocate〕allocated time for recreation;留给娱乐的时间;〔time〕Of, relating to, or measuring time.时间的:属于、有关或测定时间的〔blue〕At a completely unexpected time:突然的,始料不及的:在意料不到的时间里:〔opportunity〕A favorable or suitable occasion or time.有利的机会:合适或有利的机会或时间〔vampire〕Dracula might terrify some younger members in the audience of a horror film,but we know he is an imaginary creature.The wordvampire, however, comes to us from other words and other times, when these bloodsucking reanimated corpses were considered real. The word entered English by way of French (vampire ) and German ( Vampir ), but it came into German from an Old West Slavic source of the form.vŭmpir. The wordvampire is first recorded in English in a work written before 1734. 德拉库拉可能会吓住恐怖电影的年轻观众们,但是我们知道他是个想象中的怪物。但是当这些吸血的复活尸体被认为是真的时,vampire 这个词却来自其它的词和其它时间。 这个词是从法语(vampire )和德语( Vampir )中被引进英语来的, 但它是从古西斯拉夫语中以vumpir 的形式被引进到德语中来的。 Vampire 这个词在英语中首先以文字形式出现,是在创作于公元1734年以前的作品当中 〔synchronize〕They synchronized their trip with the annual tulip festival.他们把旅行的时间定在每年一度的郁金香节〔early〕Occurring, developing, or appearing before the expected or usual time:提早的,早来的:比原定时间或平常习惯时间早些发生、出现或发展:〔long〕For more time:用更多的时间:〔old〕Come back any old time. Don't give me any ol' excuse.按照原定时间回来。别又跟我提那个借口〔isochronal〕khronos [time] khronos [时间] 〔adjourn〕To suspend until a later stated time.使延期:延期至以后指定的时间〔upward〕Toward a later time or age:时间或年纪向后地:〔yesterday〕Also yesterdays Time in the past, especially the recent past. 也作 yesterdays 近来,最近:过去的时间,尤指最近过去的〔removed〕Distant in space, time, or nature; remote.See Synonyms at distant 遥远的:在空间,时间或性质上远离的;遥远的 参见 distant〔maturity〕The time at which a note or bond is due.票据或证券等的到期时间 |
