📖 基本释义

[noun] the state of being known or talked about by many people, especially on account of notable achievements
[名词] (尤指因取得显著成就而)被许多人知道或谈论的状态


💡 深入解读

Fame 是一个与熟词 famous 以及小站(微信公众号:田间小站)推送过的infamous同词根 fam (说)的单词,三者可以一并联想记忆。从词源上来看, fame 一词源自拉丁语fama(谈论、谣言、报道;声誉、舆论;名望、好名声),最早于13世纪初经古法语fame(名声、声誉、名望;谣言)进入英语,也是用来表示“名声、名誉、名望、声誉、鼎鼎大名”,多指一种因取得显著成就而被许多人知道或谈论的状态,但作为一个包容广泛的普通用词,其名声范围可大可小、可远可近,也并不全是指好名声
