meiosis 的詞源
meiosis(n.)
在生物學中,"細胞核的分裂",1905年,源自希臘詞 meiosis "減少",源自 meioun "減少",源自 meion "較少",源自 PIE 詞根 *mei- (2) "小"。
早在1580年代,它是一個修辭學術語,是一種修辭手法,用於用弱或負面的表達來代替積極而有力的表達,以使其更加強調,例如當一個人說"不錯"時,實際上是指"非常好",或者說"我不介意"時,實際上是指"我真的很想要",或者像"馬克·吐溫"的這個例子:
"YOUNG AUTHOR." — Yes Agassiz does recommend authors to eat fish, because the phosphorus in it makes brains. So far you are correct. But I cannot help you to a decision about the amount you need to eat,—at least, not with certainty. If the specimen composition you send is about your fair usual average, I should judge that perhaps a couple of whales would be all you would want for the present. Not the largest kind, but simply good, middling-sized whales.
"年輕作家"——是的,阿加西斯 does 建議作家吃魚,因爲其中的磷可以增強大腦。到目前爲止,你是正確的。但是關於你需要吃多少,我不能確定。如果你發送的樣本構成大致是你的平均水平,我想也許一對鯨魚就足夠了。不是最大的那種,而是中等大小的鯨魚。
