passion
英 ['pæʃ(ə)n]
美 ['pæʃən]
助记提示
1、pass- + -ion.
2、该单词最初的含义是:(殉难者的)痛苦,病痛;后来,受希腊语的影响,为了表示希腊语单词pathos的含义,进而扩展了拉丁语单词passio的含义,使其具有pathos的含义。因此,词根pass-也就具有了词根path-的部分含义。相关信息的英语说明,请看下一条。
3、meaning "strong emotion, desire" is attested from late 14c., from Late Latin use of passio to render Greek pathos.
4. 谐音:拍胸→说话动不动就拍胸特有激情(passion)
