注释
When in a Middle English text written before 1400 it is said that a part of a temple fell down and “mad a gret distruccione of ethnykis,” one wonders why ethnics were singled out for death. The word ethnic in this context, however, means “gentile,” coming as it does from the Greek adjective ethnikos, meaning “national, foreign, gentile.” The adjective is derived from the noun ethnos, “people, nation, foreign people,” that in the plural phrase ta ethn?} meant “foreign nations.” In translating the Hebrew Bible into Greek, this phrase was used for Hebrew g?om,} “gentiles”; hence the sense of the noun in the Middle English quotation. The noun ethnic in this sense or the related sense “heathen” is not recorded after 1728, although the related adjective sense is still used. But probably under the influence of other words going back to Greek ethnos, such as ethnography and ethnology, the adjective ethnic broadened in meaning in the 19th century. After this broadening the noun sense “a member of a particular ethnic group,” first recorded in 1945, came into existence.
在一篇1400年以前的中古英语文章中写道,一座神殿的一部分倒塌了并“导致一个种族的彻底毁灭”, 人们想知道为什么一个种族单单被挑出去死。但是ethnic 在这个上下文中的意思是“异教徒”, 来自于希腊语的形容词ethnikos , 意为“民族的,外来的,异教的”。 该形容词源自名词ethnos, 意为“民族、种族、外来人”, 它的复数形式ta ethne, 意为“外来民族”。 在把希伯来圣经翻译成希腊语的过程中,这一词组被用作希伯来语中的goyim, 意为“异教徒”; 因此名词的含意在中世纪英语被引用。即使相关含意讲的名词ethnic 在1728年之后也未被收录,尽管这时相关的形容词含义已被应用, 但大概在那些可追溯到古希腊语ethnos 的词, 如ethnograthy 和 ethnology 的影响下, 形容词ethnic 在19世纪时对词义进行了扩充。 这次扩充后,名词词意为“某一特定的种族群体中的一员”,在1945年被首次收录并开始存在
