The Cultural Hotpot

There is a hotpot standing in the middle of the picture, containing various kinds of food with different names such as swan lake, enlightenment, Confucianism, etc., as if all of them were mixing perfectly and harmoniously. The caption under the cartoon says: the cultural hot pot is both delicious and nutritious.

The cartoon intends to illuminate that our culture is not an isolated island where folks only absorb things that they are familiar with. What we need to assimilate, however, is cultural features from different nations and various races. And by this means, the hotpot would be so delicious and nutritious that everyone in this society can relish what they have achieved eventually and can unconsciously affect each other afterward.

In my viewpoint, diverse cultures enormously broaden ones’ horizons. In other words, whatever we are in touch with, it may provide a different way in which we see the world where there may be another treasure in an unnoticed corner. Therefore, it is no doubt that we absorb various cultures into our ethnic veins. And it is only based on this faith that we can embrace a world full of progress, prospect, and prosperity.

转载:英语一词多义现象是怎么产生的?

写得很好,通俗易懂,适合学习者反复阅读的一篇文章。 本文出处: https://www.zhihu.com/question/29588352/answer/44906185 昨天澎湃新闻网官方微博发了这么一条新闻,看完后我拈花一笑,憋出了一个响屁。心里想着: 首先这里champion的意思是: 然后everyday在这里的意思是普通的,不是每一天的,区别于every day,虽然老美自己有时会混用: 所以希拉里那句话应该这么理解:美国平头老百姓迫切需要一位捍卫他们利益的总统,老娘我就为这个来竞选大美利坚总统!!! 用这个例子来作为今天话题的引子我想不唐突。 接下来我从以下几个方面来详细阐述我对这个问题的想法: 什么是一词多义 英文为什么会有一词多义 一词多义掌握不牢靠会有什么危害 克服一词多义干扰的理论方法 克服一词多义的实践号召 一、什么是一词多义 普通读者理解的一词多义是包括polysemy(多义词)和homonym(同形异源)的。 我先介绍一下什么是homonym (同形异源)。 Homonym最早来自希腊语homonymon,homo意指(同一),onym指name, 就是说(两个意思)具有相同的名字。严格意义上说,同形异源现象指语言中词源上没有联系的词碰巧用相同的字母表征。例如,bass1表“巴斯鱼”时,它的语源是古英语barse; bass2表“声音,如低音或男低音”时,它的语源是意大利语basso。凭我个人经验判断,这种类型的一词多义现象比例非常低,并且很多字典里也会注明是来自不同语源,当然也不存在什么黑魔法帮助你更有效地理解他们。 Homonym最早来自希腊语homonymon,homo意指(同一),onym指name, 就是说(两个意思)具有相同的名字。严格意义上说,同形异源现象指语言中词源上没有联系的词碰巧用相同的字母表征。例如,bass1表“巴斯鱼”时,它的语源是古英语barse; bass2表“声音,如低音或男低音”时,它的语源是意大利语basso。凭我个人经验判断,这种类型的一词多义现象比例非常低,并且很多字典里也会注明是来自不同语源,当然也不存在什么黑魔法帮助你更有效地理解他们。 接下来本文讨论的一词多义就特指polysemy(多义词)这种情况。 二、为什么会有一词多义现象 人类语言要发展先得在大脑中有事物的概念,然后用符号去实例化(看...

考研高频单词讲解-2

书接上回。上次讲了十个单词,其中包含了许多非常重要的词根,越往下讲词根的重复率会越大,所以词根方面的内容会变少,我尽量在其他的地方多补充点内容。 11.label 动词和名词的意思都有,动词就是标签化,比如label him a loser。此处的label用作贬义,也可以和中文一样当成中性词使用。 例句: labeled the switches so as not to confuse them 这里的label可以替换为categorize或者tag。 12.detail De ‘off’ + tail ‘cut’ 意为切下来的东西 => 细节。 Tailor(裁缝)也是tail的衍生词,字面意思(literally)为’cutter’。 tailor还有作为动词的意思,也很常见,意为量身定做(裁缝干的事)。 比如 This patch is tailored for Windows users. 这个补丁是为Windows用户定制的。 tailor换成cuntomize亦可。 13.event e’out,ex的变体(variant)’+ vent ’ come’ 出来的东西,通常指大事件。比如竞技体育的大型比赛就是一次event(Ti,s10,major…) 这里的vent也是一个重要词根,作为来的意思非常多见,convene,convention,adventure,circumvent’绕过’(circum是圆的词根,circumcise(cise = cide,切)可以帮助大家很好的记忆这个词根,意思请大家自行查阅, warning : NSFW⚠) 这里再分享一句个人很喜欢的亚历山大的名言 我来,我见,我征服。 I came, I saw, I conquered. Veni, vidi, vici.(拉丁语) 这里的veni就是来,其他意思也是一一对应的。 Vidi就是看,衍生词visual,s,t,d互相变是正常操作,大家看过了就认识了。t和d是清浊辅音,s变t是因为发音相似,比如visual 和 virtual 的s和t的读音相似。 Vici是胜利,中国有个电竞俱乐部Vici gaming(VG)就取自该意。 还有IG战队(Invictus Gaming)也是如此,In表否定,后面也是拉丁语(vic做词根,tus形容词后缀),可以理解为...
