助记

  • 1. cheap(便宜的):从贸易到对交易的评价 在现代英语中,cheap是个形容词,表示“便宜的”,但它其实原本是个名词,表示“交易”、“贸易”,来自古英语ceap。伦敦现在还有一条街道叫做齐普赛德街(Cheapside),中世纪时因商铺林立而远近闻名。后来,cheap一词的含义发生了微妙的变化,变成了购买者对交易的评价和感知,如常用短语good cheap表示“划算的交易”,因此cheap一词逐渐衍生出“划算的、便宜的”之意。由于很多人认为便宜即劣质,所以cheap也常常被赋予“劣质的”、“小气的”等贬义。 与cheap同源的单词有chapman,由chap(贸易)+man(人)构成,本意是“商人”,后来专指“叫卖小贩、游商”。单词chap其实是chapman的缩写,出现于16世纪,词意发生了较大变化,从“商人”变成“顾客”,18世纪时演变为“家伙、小伙子”,已经看不出与chapman之间的关系。 cheap:[tʃiːp] adj.便宜的,劣质的,小气的,卑劣的 chapman:['tʃæpmən] n.叫卖小贩 chap:[tʃæp] n. 小伙子;家伙
  • 1. certitude:确定性 结构分析:certitude = cert(确定)+itude(名词后缀)→确定性
  • 1. cheap : 来自拉丁语caupo,小商人,叫卖者,后来词义贬义化。其原词义见Copenhagen,chapman.
