希拉里即Hillary Clinton 将竞选美国总统,那么Hillary 是什么意思呢?
Hillary 的意思与“喜”有关,表示cheerful, glad “快活的、高兴的”,最终来自希腊语,它是Hilary 的变体,顺便可以学习三个词:
hilarious(hilar 幸福,高兴,-ious 形容词后缀)
a. 欢闹的;狂欢的;引人狂笑的
He didn't like the film at all - I thought it was hilarious.
We thought it was hilarious when we first heard about it.
hilarity(见上,-ity名词后缀)
n. 欢闹,狂欢
What was all the hilarity about ?
Eva joined in the hilarity as much as anyone.
exhilarate(ex- 完全地,hilar高兴,-ate使…)
vt. 使高兴,使兴奋,使激动
Dan felt strangely exhilarated by the day's events.
We felt exhilarated by our walk along the beach.
Our first parachute jump was an exhilarating experience.
幸福和“傻”经常是有联系的,“傻”一点也许会幸福,请看:
hilar 是词根hil 带后缀的变体,而hil 和silly 词源上相关。
silly(sill 完整,幸福,-y 充满…的;本表示幸福的→纯真的、天真无邪的→简单的→头脑简单的→)
a. 傻的,糊涂的
Hillary, silly, safe,save,salvage,salvation,salute 等词源上都有关系。
