| 词汇 | superstitious |
| 词根词缀 | 词源： late 14c., from O.Fr. superstitieux, from L. superstitiosus, from superstitionem (nom. superstitio) "prophecy, soothsaying, excessive fear of the gods," perhaps originally "state of religious exaltation," related to superstes (gen. superstitis) "standing over or above," also "standing by, surviving," from superstare "stand on or over, survive," from super "above" (see super-) + stare "to stand," from PIE base *sta- "to stand" (see stet). There are many theories for the L. sense development, but none has yet triumphed. Superstition is attested from 1402. In Eng., originally especially of religion; sense of "unreasonable notion" is from 1794. 词根记忆： a. 迷信的[stitut,stit=setup,place,表示"建立,放"] 词根词缀： superstitious superstitious a 迷信的atitut,stit=set up ,place,表示”建立,放” constitute v 构成,制定(con 一起 +stitute=放到一起=构成) constitution a 构成:宪法(constitute+ion) constituent a 组成的(con+stitu+ent) reconstitute a 重新制定,泡水还原(re重新+constitute构成) destitute a 缺乏的,贫穷的(de没有+stitute=没有建立=缺乏的) destitution n 缺乏,穷困institute n 学会,学院 v.制定,设立(in进入+stiute=建立进去=设立) institution n 制度,惯例(设立出的制度) prostitute n 妓女(pro前面+stitute=放[站]在[路]前的人=妓女) prostitution n 卖淫substitute n 替代人员 v.代替(sub下面+stitute=在下面放着=代替) superstition n 迷信(super超过+stit+ion=放在[人理智]之上=迷信) superstitious a 迷信的restitute a 偿还,赔偿(re回+stitute=放回去=偿还) restitution n 赔偿,偿还 |
