Noun
1. a boy or man;
"that chap is your host"
"there's a fellow at the door"
"he's a likable cuss"
2. a male child (a familiar term of address to a boy)
大约1300年, ladde "步兵",也指"年轻男仆"(作为姓氏出现在12世纪晚期)。可能源自斯堪的纳维亚语(比如挪威语中的 -ladd,,用于构词表示"年轻人"),但无论如何都来源不明。《牛津英语词典》猜测它可能来自中古英语 ladde,是 lead(动词)的过去分词的复数形式,因此意为"被领导者"(由领主领导)。利伯曼认为它源自古诺尔斯语 ladd,意为"长筒袜; 羊毛长袜"。他补充说,"这个词的发展可能是从'长筒袜'、'愚蠢的年轻人'到'地位较低的年轻人',最后(含义得到改善)演变为'小伙子'。"他还补充说,"袜子、长筒袜和鞋子这些词似乎一直被用作侮辱和傻瓜的绰号。"指"男孩、青年、年轻人"的意思始于15世纪中叶。

1 “A fine lad. One of the finest of lads. And look at the health of him—would you now.”
2 A mere strip of a lad, hardly more than a boy.
3 “Gentle with the toes. Think of them as thin-skinned grapes, lad. You want to dry them without crushing them. Pat, do not scrub. Yes, like that.”
4 “This lad looks to be the right sort of age. He’s dressed—well, you’ll see how he’s dressed. And he found this. It could be him.”
5 A young man approached him, seemingly a shepherd lad, but fine and well-mannered like the sons of kings when they tend sheep.

15 Said he, cutting them short: “Friends, no luck lies in that plan for us, no luck, knifing the lad. Let’s think of feasting.”
16 The young lads are vying with one other in signing up for miltary service.
小伙子们争先恐地报名参军.
17 One group calling itself the National School Safety Center issued a checklist of “dangerous signs” to watch for in lads.
18 “I must say, lad, you’re making some sense now. Just a little.”
19 But the girls were nimble-witted — far cleverer than we doltish lads — and would often confer among themselves and choose one boy, usually the plainest fellow, and then tease him all the way home.
