ps.escape字源：es=ex， cape披風 (or海角七號的角)





eschew

v.避開、禁絕 [To deliberately avoid; escape]

ex.to eschew political discussion.


字源：e=ex, schew跟shy有關，字根的解釋可想成因為太害羞了就避開

聯想：es + chew(v.嚼) -->嚼一嚼口香糖後要吐出來避免吞下

to the stomach; the gullet.]



ps.

gullet n.食道、咽喉

group]

字源：Greek esōterikos, from esōterō, comparative of esō, within; see en
in Indo-European roots.]

從希臘字esōterikos來的，esōter-ikos

前面的esoter是eso的比較級，意思為inner, within的意思。

博學知道深奧的事







espionage

e-spy(see)-on-age

n.間諜活動 [the act or practice of spying.] [the activity of finding out the
political, military, or industrial secrets of enemies or rivals by using
spies]



字源：French espionnage, from espionner, to spy, from Old French espion, spy,
from Old Italian spione, of Germanic origin; see spek- in Indo-European roots

古法文有個espion就是spy的意思唷





espy

v. 窺探、看到[To catch sight of (something distant, partially hidden, or
obscure), see]

ex. Is it you I espy jogging in the park this morning?
我今天早上看到在公園裡有個人慢跑，是你嗎？

把e(=ex)想成是加強語氣就可以了

ESPY是英文Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly的簡稱

這個獎項由世界著名的ESPN評出









espouse

v.嫁娶 [To take in marriage; marry.]

v.支持、接納 [To give one's loyalty or support to (a cause, for example);
adopt.]



espouse字源：Middle English espousen, from Old French espouser, from Latin sp
ōnsāre, frequentative of spondēre, to betroth

espouse是從拉丁字sponsare來的，它的意思是訂婚(betroth)



spouse字源：from Latin spōnsus, from past participle of spondēre, to pledge

spouse跟espouse都有同樣的來源，它們最核心的概念就是pledge誓言，spouse是配偶之
義，可看出裡面有誓言存在。

讀︰死抱死→死也要抱著死，太令人感動了，一對苦命的鴛鴦
