| 释义 | 〔crimp〕Supplies of foreign oil were crimped by the embargo.禁运阻碍了外国原油的供应〔embargo〕Could an embargo on alcoholic beverages be related to a bar other than in the obvious way?The wordsembargo and bar are related, albeit distantly. Embargo comes to us from Spanish,where it was derived from the verbembargar, "to arrest, impede.” This verb came from the Vulgar Latin word.imbarricāre, made up of the Latin prefixin-, "in, into,” and the assumed Vulgar Latin form .barricāre, derived from Vulgar Latin .barrīca, "barrier.” .Barrīca, in turn, was derived from Vulgar Latin.barra, "bar, barrier,” the ultimate source of our wordbar. Imbarricāre meant essentially "to impede with a barrier.”Our wordbar is first recorded in English with the sense "barrier,” eventually developing the sense "a counter for serving drinks.”对酒精饮料的禁运能不与酒吧产生明显的关系吗?Embargo 和 bar 这两个词是相关的， 尽管相差很远。 Embargo 源自西班牙语，它派生于动词embargar， 意为“拘禁，阻止”的意思。 这个动词来自俗拉丁语imbarricare ， 由拉丁前缀in- “在…里，进入”和俗拉丁语 barrica “栅栏”派生的俗拉丁语形式 barricare 组成。 Barrica 又派生自俗拉丁语barra “栅栏，障碍物”， 是bar这个单词的最终起源。 Imbarricare 的中心意思是“用障碍物阻挡。”我们的单词bar 第一次在英语中出现是“障碍物”的意思， 最后发展成“卖饮料的柜台” |
