单词 | 首脑 |
释义 | 〔boss〕A professional politician who controls a party or a political machine.首脑,党魁:控制政党或政治机器的职业政治家〔governor〕The American Revolution did away with much that was British,but it neglected to discard an important British political term.The wordgovernor certainly seems to denote a very American office, and England has no corresponding official with that title for its counties.Nonetheless,governor has had a long history in English with reference to political rulers. In Middle Englishgovernour, the ancestor of governor, meant both "a sovereign ruler" and "a subordinate or substitute ruler.”In the later sense it was a natural term to use for heads of the British colonies in North America as well as elsewhere.During our colonial periodroyal governors were often unpopular,yet the word was not dropped after the Revolutionary Warand in fact was chosen to designate the executive head of a state when the United States of America was created.美国独立战争扫除了英国的许多东西,但却忽略了摒弃一个重要的英国政治术语。governor 这个单词肯定被看作是一个美国官方职务, 因为英国没有这样的官方职务。然而governor 作政权统治者含义在英国有很长的历史。 在中世纪的英语里,governour 是 governor 的前身, 意思是“主权统治者”和“下一级统治者或代理统治者。”用后一个意思来指英国在北美的殖民地或其他地方的首脑是很贴切的。在美国殖民地时期,皇家总督不大为人所知,然而这个词在独立战争以后并没被废除,实际上它被用来指美国建国以后各州的州长了〔master〕Used as a title for a man who serves as the head or presiding officer of certain societies, clubs, orders, or institutions.总经理:用于某一社团、俱乐部、组织或机构的首脑或首席主管的头衔〔protector〕The head of the Commonwealth of England, Scotland, and Ireland from 1653 to 1659.护国公:从1653年到1659年统治英格兰、苏格兰、爱尔兰组成的英联邦的首脑〔head〕A person who leads, rules, or is in charge; a leader, chief, or director:首脑,领导,负责人:领导、统治或管理的人;领袖、头领或指导者:〔Laval〕French politician who twice served as prime minister (1931-1932 and 1935-1936) and became head of the Vichy government (1942) after the surrender of France.
