The fact that others thought the word was so constituted partly accounts for the present formacorn. Here we see the workings of the process of linguistic change known as folk etymology,an alteration in form of a word or phrase so that it resembles a more familiar term mistakenly regarded as analogous.Acorn actually goes back to Old English æcern, "acorn,” which in turn goes back to the Indo-European root ōg-, meaning "fruit, berry.” 对acorn 稍加分析我们可能会产生这样的假设，它是由 oak 和 corn 两个词组成的， 特别是当我们想到corn 作为“植物的核或种子”的意思用时，如 胡椒粒。 有人认为这种组合方式就可解释现在acorn 这种形式。 在这我们就看到了语言学上被称为俗语源学的语言变化形式。一词或词组在形式上改变从而错误地被认为是类似性地代表另一个更为熟悉的词。Acorn 在古英语中实际上是 æcern， "acorn"的印欧语系中的词根是 og- ，意指“水果，浆果。” 〔tektite〕Any of numerous generally small, rounded, dark brown to green glassy objects that are composed of silicate glass and are thought to have been formed by the impact of a meteorite with the earth's surface.玻陨石：通常是小的、圆形的、深褐色到绿色的玻璃状的物体。由硅酸盐玻璃构成，并被认为是由于陨石与地球表面撞击而形成的〔Oxbridge〕Oxford and Cambridge universities, especially when regarded as the seat of traditional academic and social excellence, privilege, and exclusiveness.牛津和剑桥大学：牛津和剑桥大学，尤指当被认为是传统的学术和社会的卓越、特权和独占的中心时〔twerp〕A person regarded as insignificant and contemptible.笨蛋：被认为是无足轻重的和令人厌恶的人〔Manzoni〕Italian writer best known for his romantic novelThe Betrothed (1825-1827), considered one of the greatest works of modern Italian fiction. 曼佐尼，亚历山德罗：(1785-1873) 意大利作家，其成名作为浪漫主义小说《约婚夫妇》 （1825-1827年），这部小说被认为是现代意大利小说中最伟大的作品之一 〔Tao〕In Confucianism, the right manner of human activity and virtuous conduct seen as stemming from universal criteria and ideals governing right, wrong, and other categories of existence.（儒家的）道：儒家中人类行为与道德操守的正确态度，被认为是发展自放诸四海用以左右对、错及其它生活范畴的规范标准〔shit〕Something considered disgusting, of poor quality, foolish, or otherwise totally unacceptable.愚蠢的事物，恶心的事物，无法接受的事物：被认为是令人讨厌的，质量次的，愚蠢的或者是令人完全无法接受的东西〔Kemble〕British actor who managed the Drury Lane (1788-1803) and Covent Garden (1803-1817) theaters in London and was an acclaimed tragedian.

However, this usage was accepted by 71 percent of the Usage Panel in an earlier survey.What is more, objection to the usage betrays a widespread but questionable assumptionthat it is in mathematics and logic that we find the model of accuracy most appropriate to the everyday use of language,a supposition that also underlies traditional grammatical discussions of words such asunique, parallel, and center. According to this account,the "precise" or "literal" meaning ofequal is realized in the use of the equal sign in an arithmetic expression such as 5 + 2 = 7; and the ordinary-language uses of the term,though they may be permissible,represent "loose" or "imprecise" extensions of that sense.But in fact the mathematical concept of equality is a poor model for using the wordequal to describe relations between things in the world. As applied to such things,statements of equality are always relative to an implicit standard of tolerance.When someone saysThe two boards are of equal length, we assume that the equality is reckoned to some order of approximation determined by the context;if we did not,we would be required always to usenearly equal when speaking of the dimensions of physical objects. What is more,we often want to predicate equality of things that do not admit of quantitative measurement,as when we sayThe college draft was introduced in an effort to make the teams in the National Football League as equal as possible, orThe candidates for the job should all be given equal consideration. In all such cases,equality is naturally a gradient notionand so is amenable to modification in degree.This much is evident from the existence of the wordunequal. The prefixun- attaches only to gradient adjectives: we sayunmanly but not unmale; and the worduneven can be applied to a surface (whose evenness may be a matter of degree) but not to a number (whose evenness is an either-or affair). ·The adverbequally is generally regarded as redundant when used in combination with as, and the following examples employingequally as were termed unacceptable by 63 percent of the Usage Panel in an earlier survey: 单词equal 一向被认为是一个很绝对的词语—— 两个数量要么相同要么不同——这样就不能有程度上的差别。所以，如果有人说在各部门间对资源更公平的分配 ，那么就不合逻辑了。 但是这种用法在早先的用法调查中被百分之七十一用法使用小组的人接受。而且，对这种用法的反对体现出了一种很流行但却值得怀疑的假设，那就是我们从数学和逻辑中得出适用于日常语言准确性的实例，而这种假设也可从我们对一些词，如unique，parallel 和 center 传统的语法讨论中体现出来。 根据这个解释，equal “准确”或“书面”的意思则是由在算术表达式，如5+2=7中所运用的相同的符号而表达清楚的； 而该词在日常语言中的用法，虽然被允许，但却代表了其含意“松散”或“不严谨”的引申。但是实际上用数学概念上的相等来运用equal 这个词描述世上各种事物之间的关系是一个很差劲的例子。 当该词应用于生活中的事物时，相等的观念往往与暗含的容忍相关联。当有人说两块木板同样长 时， 我们会认为由于上下文的关系，相等可以被看作大约近似；如果我们不这样想，那么当我们谈到物体的尺寸时，就要经常使用nearly equal 。 另外，我们常常会预测和数量无关的事物的相同性，比如我们会说，引入大学的要求是为了使全国足球联合会中的各队尽可能平等 ， 或者应给予该项工作的应征者同等的考虑 。 在所有这些例子中，相等是个可变化的概念，所以可在程度有所不同。Unequal 这个词的存在就是很好的证明。 un- 这个前缀只附加于有程序变化的形容词， 我们说unmanly 但不说 unmale ； 而uneven 这个词只能用于某物的表面（其平坦可有程度上的差别）， 而不能用于数目（数目只能说相等或不相等）。Equally 这一副词在与 as 连用时通常被认为是多余的， 在早先的用法调查中，以下这些使用equally as 的句子遭到百分之六十三使用小组的人反对： 〔bad〕Bad is often used as an adverb in sentences such asThe house was shaken up pretty bad orWe need water bad. This usage is common in informal speechbut is widely regarded as unacceptable in formal writing.In an earlier survey,the sentenceHis tooth ached so bad he could not sleep was unacceptable to 92 percent of the Usage Panel. · The use ofbadly with want, once considered incorrect,is now entirely acceptable: Bad 在句子中常用作副词， 如这座房子摇晃得很厉害， 或是我们非常需要水。 在非正式演讲中这一用法很普遍，但在正式书面语中广泛地被认为不能接受。在早期的调查中，句子他牙疼得厉害以致睡不着觉。 对于92%的用法小组成员来说是不能接受的。badly 和 want 连用的用法， 曾经被认为是不正确的，现在则完全被接受： 〔Elam〕An ancient country of southwest Asia in present-day southwest Iran. It was established east of the Tigris River before 3000b.c. and was known for its warlike people, traditionally thought to be descended from Noah's son Shem. 埃兰：亚洲西南部的古老国家，在今天的伊朗西南部。公元前 3000年以前在底格里斯河东岸建国。以善战的人民著称，传统上被认为是诺亚儿子舍姆的后代 〔Dufay〕Flemish composer regarded as the first great composer of the Renaissance. He is particularly known for his Mass compositions.迪费，纪尧姆：(1400?-1474) 佛勒明作曲家，被认为是文艺复兴的时期第一个伟大的作曲家，他尤以弥撒曲著名〔kachina〕A masked dancer believed to embody a particular spirit during a religious ceremony.在宗教仪式上被认为是代表某个神灵的戴面具的舞蹈者〔Blok〕Russian poet. Considered Russia's greatest symbolist poet, he is particularly noted for his lyrics, verse dramas, and long poemThe Twelve (1918). 布罗克，亚历山大·亚历山德罗维奇：(1880-1921) 俄国诗人。他被认为是俄罗斯最伟大的象征主义诗人，他尤以抒情诗、诗体戏剧和长诗而著名，如《十二个》 （1918年） 〔Halicarnassus〕An ancient Greek city of southwest Asia Minor on the Aegean Sea in present-day Turkey. In the fourth centuryb.c. Queen Artemisia built a magnificent tomb here for her husband, King Mausolus. His mausoleum was considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World. 哈利卡那苏斯：一座位于今天土耳其境内小亚细亚西南部爱琴海上的希腊古城 。在公元前 4世纪，阿米特米西娅王后在这儿为她的丈夫摩索拉斯国王修建了一座雄伟壮观的陵墓，这座陵墓被认为是世界七大奇迹之一 〔softy〕A person regarded as weak or sentimental.多愁善感的人：被认为是软弱或多愁善感的人〔Helen〕The daughter of Zeus and Leda and wife of Menelaus, considered to be the most beautiful woman in the world.
