afflict-humanitarian:人生而平等,谁也上不了天
【造词理据】af-是ad-的变体,表朝向(=to),词根flict源自原始印欧语词根*bhlig-(打击=strike),可能是拟声词,但并没有足够证据证明。魔法师认为F更符合造词视角,F表木栓、木钉,引申指拴住,在这里指困扰、折磨。
【例句】After the war, thousands of American soldiers afflict with a sense of guilt.
战后成千上万的美国士兵背负着一种负罪感。
【同根词】inflict、afflicted、conflict、profligate(魔法师总结)
【造词理据】im-是en-的变体,表里面(=in),-ant是后缀,词根migr源自原始印欧语词根*mei-(移动=move),M表海水,引申指(水的)流动、移动,这里指外来的移民、加入某国的,即外侨。
【例句】And he never forgot the humble origins of his Irish immigrant background.
他也从没忘却自己出身爱尔兰移民后裔的谦卑背景。
【同根词】amiss; amoeba; azimuth; common; commune; communicate; communication; communism; commute; congee;demean; emigrate; emigration; excommunicate; excommunication; immune; immutable; incommunicado; mad; mean (adj.1) "low-quality;" mew (n.2) "cage;" mews; migrate; migration; mis- (1) "bad, wrong;" mistake; Mithras; molt; Mstislav; municipal; munificent;mutable; mutant; mutate; mutation; mutatis mutandis; mutual; permeable; permeate; permutation; permute; remunerate;remuneration; transmutation; transmute; zenith.
【造词理据】-ous和-or都是后缀,词根rig源自原始印欧语词根*reig-(捆绑=bind)、(使更快=make fast)。R表头,引申指头领、向导,再引申指指向、指挥,这里借“听指挥”指“严格的”。(这一解释可以通过direct的词根rec、rect、reg等佐证)。
【例句】Long engaged in the financial field, I developed a rigorous work, workconscientiously, and a strong sense of responsibility style of work.
长期从事的金融领域工作,培养了我做事严谨,工作认真,责任心强的工作作风。
【同根词】rigid、rig、scourge、reach、rigor。(魔法师总结)
【造词理据】com-是前缀,起强调作用,-ment是后缀,词根pli源自原始印欧语词根*pele-(充满=fill)。P为F的通转,F表木栓、木钉,引申指钉入、塞满,在引申指制作完成,在这里指“完成礼仪,表达尊重,多用于客套性的用语。”,即赞美。
【例句】At most, an occasional or veiled compliment is all that should be needed to keepsomeone feeling affirmed.
在大多数,偶尔或隐晦的赞美是所有应需要保持人的感觉肯定。
【同根词】 accomplish; complete; compliment; comply; depletion; expletive; fele; fill; folk; full (adj.); gefilte fish; hoi polloi;implement; manipulation; nonplus; plebe; plebeian; plebiscite; pleiotropy; Pleistocene; plenary; plenitude; plenty; plenum;plenipotentiary; pleo-; pleonasm; plethora; Pliocene; pluperfect; plural; pluri-; plus; Pollux; poly-; polyamorous; polyandrous;polyclinic; polydactyl; polydipsia; Polydorus; polyethylene; polyglot; polygon; polygraph; polygyny; polyhedron; polyhistor;polymath; polymer; polymorphous; Polynesia; polyp; Polyphemus; polyphony; polysemy; polysyllabic; polytheism; replenish;replete; supply; surplus; volkslied.
【造词理据】-ian、-ar、-it都是后缀,词根human源自原始印欧语词根*dhghem-(土地=earth)。字母D脱落,其所有同根词的首字母D都脱落,故魔法师认为D可能不符合英语造字视角,而且D表门,象形,与earh也无关联。词源学家Sanskrit认为其首字母应该是K。故魔法师按此解释推断,K表手,引申指抓住、放置,借“放置”指“地上、土地”,与sky相对。所谓人道主义,原指都是地球上的生命(大家都是上帝或女娲用泥土造的^_^)
【例句】He said the United Nations would continue its peacekeeping and humanitarianoperations in Sudan despite recent developments.
他说,尽管最近发生了一些事情,联合国将继续在苏丹的维和以及人道主义活动。
