词源
- travel(旅行):古代令人痛苦的长途旅行英语中,表示“旅行”的单词travel和表示“艰辛劳动、分娩之苦”的单词travail拼写十分接近,实际上它们来自同一词源,拥有相同的初始含义,表示“受苦、辛苦劳作”。在中世纪时,交通很不发达,因此长途旅行是一件非常令人痛苦并且危险的事情。单词travel的词源就反映了这一事实。 travel:['træv(ə)l] v.旅行,经过,行进n.旅行,游历 travail: ['træveɪl] n.艰苦劳动,分娩之苦vi.辛勤劳动,经受分娩之苦
- travel旅行在古时候出门旅行是极其辛苦而又非常危险的事,这一点在英语某些词的词源上就有所反映。例如现指“旅行”的travel 一词原先就含有“辛苦”之义,它是意指“辛苦”或“剧痛”的travail 一词之异体。其实这两个词都来自法语travailer (劳动),并可溯源至拉丁语trepalium(刑具)。当我们说farewell (再见)时,实际上常含有travel well(一路平安)的意思。甚至连peril(危险)一词也是源于意含the danger of going forth to travel (出门旅行的风险)的拉丁词periculum的。
- travel旅行travel的本义就含“痛苦”。tra为前缀“三”,如triple(三倍);vel是词根pal“尖桩”的变体,和pale(栅栏)同源,体会v、p音变。本指一种折磨人的有三个尖头的刑具。可见在古代的环境下,出远门是件痛苦的事情。
