| 释义 | 〔concurrent〕from Latin concurrēns concurrent- [present participle of] concurrere [to coincide] * see concur 源自 拉丁语 concurrēns concurrent- concurrere的现在分词 [使巧合] * 参见 concur〔compete〕from Latin [to coincide, be suitable] 源自 拉丁语 [巧合，适合的] 〔synchronism〕Coincidence in time; simultaneousness.同时发生，同时性：时间上巧合；同步性〔invoke〕"Shamelessly, he invokes coincidence to achieve ironic effect"(Newsweek)See Synonyms at enforce “可耻的是，他借助于巧合来达到反讽效果”(新闻周刊) 参见 enforce〔concur〕To occur at the same time; coincide.同时发生；巧合〔ironic〕The wordsironic, irony, and ironically are sometimes used of events and circumstances that might better be described as simply "coincidental" or "improbable,” in that they suggest no particular lessons about human vanity or folly.Thus 78 percent of the Usage Panel rejects the use ofironically in the sentence 单词ironic， irony 和 ironically 有时所修饰的事件和环境也许就简单地描述为“巧合的”或“不可能发生的”还更好一些， 因为它们并未对人类的虚妄或愚蠢提出什么特别的暗示。因此，用法专题讨论小组的百分之七十八的成员反对将ironically 用在下面这句话中 〔coincidence〕A sequence of events that although accidental seems to have been planned or arranged.巧合，凑巧：虽是偶然的，但似乎是经计划或安排的一系列事件〔concurrence〕Simultaneous occurrence; coincidence.巧合：同时发生；巧合〔concur〕from Latin concurrere [to meet, coincide] 源自 拉丁语 concurrere [遇见，巧合] 〔fey〕The history of the wordsfey and fay illustrates a rather fey coincidence. Our wordfay, "fairy, elf,” the descendant of Middle Englishfaie, "a person or place possessed of magical properties,” and first recorded around 1390,goes back to Old Frenchfae, "fairy,” the same word that has given usfairy. Fae in turn comes from Vulgar LatinFāta, "the goddess of fate,” from Latin fātum, "fate.” Iffay goes back to fate, so doesfey in a manner of speaking, for its Old English ancestorfǣge meant "fated to die.” The sense we are more familiar with, "magical or fairylike in quality,”seems to have arisen partly because of the resemblance in sound betweenfay and fey. fey 和 fay 两词的历史展示了一个十分奇特的巧合。 我们现在所使用的词fay, “神仙，小精灵，” 是中古英语faie, “具有魔力的人或地方”的派生词， 它首次记载于约1390年左右，回溯到古法语fae “神仙”， 这一词产生了我们现在的fairy。 Fae 依次产生于俗拉丁语Fata, “命运女神，”和拉丁语 fatum， “命运。” 如果fay 回到命运的意思， 可以说fey 也是如此， 因为其古英语原形f?ge 的意思即为“注定死亡。” 我们现在更熟悉的意思“性质上具有魔力的或似神仙的”，似乎部分是由于fay 和 fey 在读音上的相似而产生的 〔synchronicity〕Coincidence of events that seem to be meaningfully related, conceived in the theory of Carl Jung as an explanatory principle on the same order as causality.同时发生：按照卡尔·荣格的相同因果关系的解释理论，用于解释意义相关的偶然巧合事件 |
