crow区别

 pride, boast, brag, crow

这组词都有“自夸,吹嘘”的意思,其区别是:

pride与boast的意义较接近,指炫耀、夸口,自鸣得意,常与反身代词连用。

boast普通用词,指对自己所做的事,自己的长处、财富以及家庭等的夸耀,常含言过其实的意味。

brag非正式用词,其夸耀和吹嘘意味强于boast,到了过分夸大,有时令人讨厌的地步。

crow多指大声吵嚷地吹嘘,夸耀自己做某事比他人做得好。

crow词源中文解释

这是一种鸟类的通用名称,属于 Corvus 属(较大的种类有时被称为 ravens),源自古英语 crawe,被认为是模仿鸟的叫声。可以与古萨克森语的 kraia,荷兰语的 kraai,古高地德语的 chraja,德语的 Kräke 进行比较。

这种鸟以其聪明和社交性而闻名。英国和北美的种类非常相似。1810年的短语 as the crow flies "直线行走",其形象在1800年的不同形式中得到证实。

美国英语中的比喻短语 eat crow "做或接受自己强烈厌恶并曾经强烈反对的事情,接受那些虽然不无法忍受,但却不太希望发生的事情",可以追溯到1870年(最初经常是 eat boiled crow),似乎是基于这样的观念,即这种鸟煮熟后可以食用,但味道却不太令人愉快。

19世纪中期有一个经常被重印的笑话,关于一个男人为了赢得他可以吃任何东西的赌注,同意吃一只煮熟的乌鸦。当他极其困难地吞下第一口时,他对旁观者说:"我可以吃乌鸦,但我不 hanker 它。"这个笑话可以追溯到1854年(Walter Etecroue 在伦敦市信件簿的日历中出现在1361年)。

I tried my best to eat crow, but it was too tough for me. "How do you like it?" said the old man, as, with a desperate effort, he wrenched off a mouthful from a leg. "I am like the man," said I, "who was once placed in the same position: 'I ken eat crow, but hang me if I hanker arter it.'" "Well," says the captain, "it is somewhat hard; but try some of the soup and dumplings and don t condemn crow-meat from this trial, for you shot the grandfather and grandmother of the flock: no wonder they are tough; shoot a young one next time." "No more crow-meat for me, thank you," said I. [James G. Swan, "The Northwest Coast, or Three Years' Residence in Washington Territory," New York, 1857] 
我尽力去吃乌鸦,但它对我来说太硬了。"你觉得怎么样?"老人问,他用尽全力,从一只腿上撕下一口。"我就像那个人,"我说,"他曾经处在同样的位置:'我可以吃乌鸦,但我不 hanker 它。'" "嗯,"船长说,"它确实有点硬; 但试试汤和饺子,不要因为这次试验就否定乌鸦肉,因为你打的是这群乌鸦的祖父和祖母:难怪它们这么硬; 下次打一只年轻的。" "谢谢,我不再吃乌鸦肉了,"我说。[James G. Swan, "The Northwest Coast, or Three Years' Residence in Washington Territory," New York, 1857]

crow's foot 的形象用于描述随着年龄增长在眼角出现的皱纹,这可以追溯到14世纪末("So longe mote ye lyve Til crowes feet be growen under youre ye." [Chaucer, Troilus and Criseyde, c. 1385])。

crow词源英文解释

Noun (1) Middle English crowe, from Old English crāwe; akin to Old High German krāwa crow, Old English crāwan to crow Verb Middle English, from Old English crāwan Noun (3) translation of American French gens des Corbeaux "crow people," or names of similar meaning in the languages of Plains Indians adjacent to the Crows Note: The reason for the application of words meaning "crow" or "raven" to the Crow by their neighbors is obscure. The Crow self-designation is apsâˑroˑke, traditionally rendered in English Absaroka, Apsaroka, with other variants; it is spelled Apsáalooke in the practical orthography used by Crow speakers. (The sound written l is pronounced as a rhotic tap by older speakers.) It is apparently a generalization of an earlier band name and has no etymology, though supposed translations of the word in the 19th and early 20th centuries frequently rendered it as "Crow." See Handbook of North American Indians, vol. 13, part 2 (Washington, 2001), pp. 714-15.

The first known use of crow was before the 12th century

2 "Hey, Crow, old pal, do me a favor and fill this for me," he said, handing her his flask as they left through the door.

3 Arguably the most important parallel between mass incarceration and Jim Crow is that both have served to define the meaning and significance of race in America.

4 That night, after dinner, Mom put on a CD by a singer named Sheryl Crow.

5 Many of the forms of discrimination that relegated African Americans to an inferior caste during Jim Crow continue to apply to huge segments of the black population today—provided they are first labeled felons.

13 The caste system will reemerge in a new form, just as convict leasing replaced slavery, or it will be reborn, just as mass incarceration replaced Jim Crow.

14 We now turn to another important difference between mass incarceration and Jim Crow: the direct harm to whites caused by the current caste system.

15 It was one rejection too many; he had had enough of Jim Crow.

16 ‘I've won, I've won! ’ she crowed.

17 Like the minstrel shows of the slavery and Jim Crow eras, today’s displays are generally designed for white audiences.
