| 背面 |     释义： 1、Latin surdus "deaf, unheard, silent, mute". => surd-: deaf, unheard, silent, mute.2、surd- => surd: irrational.3、咱们汉语里有表达这种关联的形象的成语：掩耳盗铃、装聋作哑、充耳不闻；这些行为是不是都非常的荒唐、荒谬、无理取闹啊！因此，由词根含义转变到、引申到单词含义自然就水到渠成了。4、ab- "away, off; 由于该前缀的这层含义，在这里添加在surd之前更加强了surd的含义，为什么呢？想一想充耳不闻、装聋作哑地走开(away, off)，就明白了！" + surd- / surd + -ity => absurdity.5、In surd, the mathematical sense is from the use of Latin surdus to translate Arabic (jadhr) asamm "deaf (root)," itself a loan-translation of Greek alogos, literally "speechless, without reason".6、In French, sourd remains the principal word for "deaf".n. 荒谬；谬论；荒谬的言行 例句： 1. I find myself growing increasingly angry at the absurdity of the situation.对如此荒谬可笑的情况我感到越来越生气。 absurdity (n.)late 15c., from Middle French absurdité, from Late Latin absurditatem (nominative absurditas) "dissonance, incongruity," noun of state from Latin absurdus "out of tune;" figuratively "incongruous, silly, senseless," from ab-, intensive prefix, + surdus "dull, deaf, mute" (see susurration)." |
