美 [?'lid??ns]
助記提示
1. liege => legeance "loyalty of a liege-man to his lord" => allegiance.
2. corrupted in spelling by confusion with the now-obsolete legal term allegeance "alleviation".
3. 前綴的出現(xiàn)，是由于與現(xiàn)已廢棄的法律術(shù)語(yǔ)單詞allegeance的混淆而出現(xiàn)的誤拼，然后也就將錯(cuò)就錯(cuò)了；lege-音變?yōu)閘egi-.
4. Allegiance：我力戰(zhàn)死。為了祖國(guó)我會(huì)力戰(zhàn)而死----忠誠(chéng)，擁護(hù)。
中文詞源
allegiance 效忠前綴al-同ad-. 單詞liege, 臣子，臣民。原指臣子對(duì)君王的效忠。后該詞多與詞根lig相聯(lián)系, lig, 綁定, 見(jiàn)ligature,韌帶。
英文詞源
- allegiance (n.)
- late 14c., from Anglo-French legaunce "loyalty of a liege-man to his lord," from Old French legeance, from liege (see liege); erroneously associated with Latin ligare "to bind;" corrupted in spelling by confusion with the now-obsolete legal term allegeance "alleviation." General figurative sense of "recognition of claims to respect or duty" is attested from 1732.
