內(nèi)容介紹:
This dictionary gives the origins of some 20,000 items from the modern English vocabulary, discussing them in groups that make clear the connections between words derived by a variety of routes from originally common stock. As well as giving the answers to questions about the derivation of individual words, it is a fascinating book to browse through, since every page points out links with other entries. It is easy to pursue such trails as the longer articles are written as continuous prose clearly divided up by means of numbered paragraphs and subheadings, and there is a careful system of cross-references. In addition to the main A-Z listing, there are extensive lists of prefixes, suffixes, and elements used in the creation of new vocabulary.
作者介紹:
Eric Honeywood Partridge (6 February 1894 – 1 June 1979) was a New Zealand/British lexicographer of the English language, particularly of its slang. His writing career was interrupted only by his service in the Army Education Corps and the RAF correspondence department during World War II. Partridge died in Moretonhampstead, Devon, in 1979.
非常經(jīng)典的詞源詞典。以下是《漢語印歐語詞匯比較》對(duì)該詞典的評(píng)價(jià):
……該書初版于1958年,是根據(jù)各語言此前完成的詞源詞典,吸取其豐富的資料和在編寫方式上的長(zhǎng)處,全部重新整理編寫的(見作者自序,下同)。由于篇幅限制,E.Partridge排除了一些詞。但是,他所設(shè)立的體系和橫向的資料來源,使“Origins”“覆蓋了更為寬闊的領(lǐng)域,尤其是對(duì)所有重要的詞作了更為充實(shí)和透徹的解釋”。未收入詞條的是一部分科技術(shù)語、方言、行業(yè)術(shù)語和俚語,以及沒有詞源關(guān)系的外來詞。這些沒有收入的現(xiàn)代英語詞條與追溯古印歐語詞源關(guān)系不大,該書因此反而更明晰、精煉……由于薈萃了此前歷史比較語言學(xué)的研究成果,該書收入的語言資料,特別是古印歐語資料相當(dāng)豐富……。
