Abidjan's population is 1,500,000.阿比让:象牙海岸的首都和最大城市。位于该国的南部,几内亚湾的一个封闭的礁湖上。1983年将亚穆苏克罗定为未来的首都。阿比让人口为1,500,000〔intending〕Purposing to become or be; prospective:预计的;未来的:〔apocalyptic〕"now speaks in apocalyptic terms about the probable conflict ahead"(Financial Times)“现在以预示灾变似的话语讲着未来可能发生的冲突”(金融时报)〔Mozarab〕from Arabic musta'rib [would-be Arab] 源自 阿拉伯语 musta'rib [未来的阿拉伯人] 〔anlage〕A fundamental principle; the foundation for a future development.基础,基本:基本原则;未来发展的基础〔macabre〕The wordmacabre is an excellent example of a word formed with reference to a specific context that has long since disappeared for everyone but scholars. Macabre is first recorded in the phrase Macabrees daunce in a work written around 1430 by John Lydgate. Lydgate expressed it so because he thoughtMacabree was a French author, although he was actually dealing with the Old French phraseDanse Macabre, "the Dance of Death,” a subject of art and literature.In this dance,Death leads people of all classes and walks of life to the same final end.Themacabre element is thought by some to be an alteration of Macabe , "a Maccabee.” The Maccabees were Jewish martyrswho were honored by a feast throughout the Western Church,and reverence for them was linked to reverence for the dead.One of the biblical books of Maccabees also contains a passage (II Maccabees 12:43-45) mentioning sacrifices for the dead and their future resurrection,which has been used to defend the doctrine of Purgatory.Todaymacabre has no connection with the Maccabees and little connection with the Dance of Death,but it still has to do with death.单词macabre 是一个极好的例子,创造该词的来龙去脉除了学者之外早已被世人所遗忘。 Macabre 最早见于短语 Macabrees daunce 是在1430年前后约翰·利德盖特写的一本书中。 利德盖特这样表达是因为他认为Macabree 是源于法语的词, 实际上他指的是一个古老的法语短语Danse Macabre, “死神之舞,” 一个艺术与文学的主题。在这个舞蹈中,死神把各种各样的人带到了同一个终点。有人认为macabre 是 Macabe 的变体,“马加比人”。 马加比们就是那些犹太殉道者,在天主教会中通过节日表达对他们的敬意,对他们的尊敬和对死的敬畏是联系在一起的。基督教典籍中关于马加比人的书中有一段文字(Ⅱ马加比人12:43-45)提到对死者的祭祀和他们未来的复活,这段文字被用来捍卫关于炼狱的教义。今天macabre 与马加比人毫无联系, 与死神之舞相关甚少,但它仍与死亡有关〔indeterminate〕an indeterminate future.不可预测的未来〔Marinetti〕Italian writer who founded futurism with the publication of his 1909 manifesto. Among his works areThe Bleeding Mummy (1904) and Mafarka the Futurist (1910). 马里内蒂,埃米利奥·费利波·托马索:(1876-1944) 意大利作家,以其1909年发表的宣言为标志建立了未来主义学派,作品有《流血的木乃伊》 (1904年)和 《未来主义者马法尔卡》 (1910年) 〔futuristic〕Of or relating to the future.未来的:未来的或与未来有关的〔Jaspers〕German psychiatrist and philosopher.

But there is reputable precedent from the 17th century on for usingprotagonist to mean simply "important actor" or "principal party,”with no implication of uniqueness,as inThere are three protagonists in this sluggish novel. Smith and Jones were the protagonists in the struggle over the future of the computer company. Thus, while some writers may prefer to confine the word to a singular sense in their own usage,it is pedantic to insist that the looser use is incorrect. ·The use ofprotagonist to refer to a proponent has become common only in the 20th century and may have been influenced by a misconception that the first syllable of the word represents the prefixpro-, "favoring.” In sentences such asHe was an early protagonist of nuclear power, this use is likely to strike many readers as an errorand can usually be replaced byadvocate or proponent with no loss of sense.希腊戏剧的protagnist 是主角, 且在任何戏剧中仅有一个主角。许多现代作家在用这个词时都注意使它指代戏剧或其他小说的主要人物,因此当用法专题小组成员被问及“在奥赛罗 里有几个主要人物?”时, 大部分人回答“一个”,而且用如antagonist、villain、principal 和 deuteragonist 等词来描述苔丝德蒙娜和雅各。 但是从十七进纪开始,有一个使用protagonist 的规范惯例, 仅表示“重要的演员”或“首要的政党”,而丝毫没有独一无二的暗示,象在句子在这部文风拖沓的小说中有三个人物。 史密斯和琼斯是为计算公司的未来而奋斗的主角中一样。 因此,当某些作家可能在他们自己的用法中偏于把这个词限制在一个简单的含义中时,仍强调自由用法不正确就是卖弄学问的了。用protagonist 来指代建议者或支持者仅在20世纪开始变得常见, 而且被对于代表意为“支持的”前缀pro- 的该词第一个音节的误解所影响。 在句子他是核武力的早期支持者 中, 这种用法可能会使读者认为是个错误,而且常被advocate 或 proponent 所替代, 同时也不会有任何意思的遗漏〔ballpark〕gave a ballpark estimate of future unit sales.对未来的单位销售法做出几近正确的估计〔ahead〕In an advanced position or a configuration registering the future:向前,朝前:处于前列的位置或指示未来的方位:〔unborn〕Not yet appeared; future:未出现的,未来的:〔Chechnya〕A region of southwest Russia in the northern Caucasus bordering on Georgia. Conquered by Russia in the 19th century, it later formed part of the Chechen-Ingush Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic. Chechnya declared its independence from the USSR in 1991. Russian troops invaded in late 1994, and fighting continued until 1996, when Russia and Chechnya signed an accord calling for an end to hostilities and the opening of negotiations on Chechnya's future political status.车臣:俄罗斯西南部地区,位于与格鲁吉亚共和国接壤的高加索北部。19世纪该地区被俄罗斯征服后成为车臣-印古什自治苏维埃社会主义共和国的一部分。1991年车臣宣告脱离苏联而独立。1994下半年俄罗斯军队入侵车臣,1996年俄罗斯与车臣签订和平条约要求结束对立并开始协商车臣未来的政治地位,至此这场战争宣告结束 |
