Lest it be thought undignified to say that God could nap,it must be realized that our wordnap was at one time not associated only with the younger and older members of society nor simply with short periods of rest.The ancestors of our word,Old Englishhnappian and its descendant, Middle Englishnappen, could both refer to prolonged periods of sleep as well as short ones and also, as in the quotation from Psalm 121, to sleepiness.But these senses have been lost.Since the word has become less dignified,we would not findnap used in a translation of Psalm 121 any longer. 圣经诗篇121中著名的第四节，在钦定圣经译本中记为“看吧，他，守卫以色列的人既不能熟睡也不能打盹，”在中世纪英语中被译为"Loo , ha shal not nappen ne slepen that kepeth ireal"。单词nappen 在中世纪英语中就存在， 是单词nap 的前身。 避免人们不尊敬地认为上帝也能打盹，我们必须认识到单词nap 某些时候不只是与社会中的年轻人和老年人相关， 当然它也不仅指短暂的休息。这个单词的前身，古英语中hnappian 及后来它的衍生词， 中世纪英语中的nappen 都能表示延长时间的睡眠及短暂的睡眠， 如同圣经诗篇121中的引语，表示小睡。但这些意思都已经失传了。因为这个单词逐渐变得不再神圣，我们已无法再找到nap 用于圣经诗篇121的翻译中的意思了 〔gerodontics〕The branch of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases and problems specific to the aged.老年牙医学：牙科学分支，专门研究老年人牙病和问题的诊断、预防和治疗〔gerontology〕The scientific study of the biological, psychological, and sociological phenomena associated with old age and aging.老人学：与年老或老年人有关的生物、心理和社会现象的科学研究〔Kreps〕American economist who served as U.S. secretary of commerce (1977-1979) and is noted for her studies of the employment of women and older people.克莱普斯，胡安塔·莫里斯：(生于 1921) 美国经济学家，曾任美国商业部长（1977-1979年），而且她以对妇女和老年人就业问题的研究而闻名〔geriatrics〕The branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and problems specific to the aged.老年病学：研究对老年人疾病和问题的诊断和治疗的医学分支〔osteoarthritis〕A form of arthritis, occurring mainly in older persons, that is characterized by chronic degeneration of the cartilage of the joints.
