fate较庄严用词,多指不幸的命运,暗示不可避免,令人畏惧和人的意志无法改变,宿命论色彩较浓。

公元1300年,“机会,运气成为人类事务中的一种力量”,来自十二世纪的古法语“fortune”,意为“命运,好运,厄运”,源自拉丁语“fortuna”,意为“机会,命运,好运”,源自“fors”(属格“fortis”),意为“机会,运气”,可能最终来自原始印欧语根“*bher-”(1),“携带”,也是“生孩子”,这一点得到 de Vaan 的支持,尽管“从'负载'或'承载'到'机会,运气'的语义转变并不显然。。。"这个意义可能是“被带来的东西”。
“拥有财富”的意思首次出现在斯宾塞; 它可能演变来自“一个人的生活状况或地位”,因此是“根据财富来确定的地位”,然后是“财富,大产业”本身。常被人格化为女神; 她的车轮象征着变迁。1660年代,有记录的“Soldier of fortune”。1955年,“Fortune 500”的“最有利可图的美国公司”来自“财富”杂志每年发布的名单。从1680年代开始,“Fortune-hunter”指“为了财富而寻求结婚对象”的人。
