📖 基本释义

[verb] append or add as an extra or subordinate part, especially to a document
[动词] 作为额外的或从属的部分附加或添加,尤其是加到某个文档中


💡 深入解读

Annex 一词源自拉丁语annecetere(绑定到),14世纪末经古法语annexer(加入、附加)进入英语后,先是用来表示“附加、添加、附带”,常搭配介词 to 表示把某物作为额外的或从属的部分附加或添加到更早、更大或更重要的事物上,尤其是加到某个文档中,

比如:

annex a clause to a contract在合同上附加一项条款

Happiness is not always annexed to wealth.财富未必能增添幸福。

annex privileges to the peerage给贵族以附带的特权

从这个概念出发,到了15世纪后, annex 开始引申发展出现在的常用含义指用武力或擅自“强占、吞并”国家、地区等,也就是强行将一个额外的地理区域纳某个国家、地区等的范围,与小站(微信公众号:田间小站)推送过的cede相对,

比如:

Germany annexed Austria in 1938.1938年德国吞并了奥地利。

进而 annex 也被用来表示“(为自己)得到、获得”或者说“把……强行占为己有”,比如:包揽各个奖项

annex all the prizes

She did not like to see him annexed by another woman.她不愿意看到他被另一个女人夺去。

an annex to the will用作名词时, annex 则相应表示“附加物、附件、附录”以及在建筑领域表示“附属建筑物、添加的建筑物”,比如:遗嘱的附件
