莎士比亚写进词典的表达

莎士比亚写进词典的表达莎士比亚是英国文学史上最伟大的戏剧家之一,他的作品给英语语言的发展带来了巨大的影响。
在他的戏剧作品中,包含了很多独特的表达方式,成为英语词汇的重要组成部分。
下面,就让我们来探究一下莎士比亚写进词典的表达一、创造新词莎士比亚在他的作品中创造了很多新词,这些词语在当时并不被广泛使用。
例如,他用“bump”这个词来表示“将两个物体碰撞在一起”,这个词在当时并不被广泛使用,但现在已经成为英语词汇的重要部分了。
二、借鉴外语单词尽管莎士比亚创造了很多新的词汇,但他也使用了很多外来语单词。
例如,“piazza”这个词来自于意大利语,表示的是一个广场,莎士比亚在他的作品中也使用了这个词。
三、使用陈旧的单词莎士比亚的作品中使用了很多在他那个时代已经失去流行的单词,但这些词在他的作品中重新焕发了生机。
例如,“fain”这个单词在莎士比亚的作品中多次出现,它的意思是“喜欢”,此外,“Hark”,“blasphemy”和“courtesy”等单词也在莎士比亚的作品中流传下来。
四、用双关语和谐语莎士比亚的作品中充满了各种双关语和谐语,这些语言技巧使得他的作品更加生动、幽默。
例如,他在《哈姆雷特》里的那句名言,“to be or not to be”既可以表示生命与死亡,也可以表示存在与不存在,兼具哲学和文学之美。
莎士比亚写进词典的表达形式多样,但他不仅仅是一位作家,他还是一位语言学家,为英语语言的发展提供了不可磨灭的贡献。
我们对于英语语言的使用都应该心存感激,由衷地感谢莎士比亚为英语语言的发展做出的杰出贡献。
英语中有关“Dog”的十则典故

1522018年49期总第437期ENGLISH ON CAMPUS典故4.Dogberry 愚蠢无比的人Dogberry(道格培里)出自英语作家莎士比亚的剧作《无事生非》(Much Ado About Nothing)。
道格培里是该剧中的一个警吏。
在审讯时,他分不清楚原告和被告,竟说自己是被告,被告骂他“蠢馿”时,他竟叫司事作记录,并再三叮嘱同事不要忘记写上“我是一头馿”。
后来人们就以Dogberry 来比喻“愚蠢无比的官吏。
”典故5.Hot dog 热狗Hot dog “热狗”,字面看,由英语直译过来。
事实上,hot dog源于德国,来源于一张漫画上的讹写。
hot dog又被称作“法兰克福香肠”、“法兰克香肠”、“维也纳香肠”、“小红肠”,还叫“德希臣狗香肠”(德希臣狗是指长体短腿棕毛狗,把香肠的形状做成这种狗的形象而命名)。
这源于一位德裔美国人哈里·史蒂文斯,他为了获得点心的注册经营权,他把他制作的德希臣狗香肠面包推销到纽约的棒球赛场,结果,德希臣狗香肠非常受人欢迎。
在纽约巨人队的基地“波洛”运动场上,史蒂文斯还雇用小贩在看台上叫卖:“快来买热的德希臣狗香肠!”。
这样的销售非常火爆。
当时,《赫斯特报》的漫画家塔德·多尔根刚好在看台上看见那狗型的香肠和听到小贩们犬吠般的叫卖声,顿生灵感,即兴画了一幅漫画:一个小圆面包里夹一节“德希臣狗”香肠,上边抹了一些芥末。
后来,多尔根回到办公室后,又把漫画润饰了一下,但在写说明注释时,不知为何突然想不起来如何拼写dachshund(德希臣),只好写上“dog”字样,再加上漫画中小贩的喊声就写成了“快来买热狗(Hot dog)”。
有趣的是,这一讹写居然也很受人欢迎,这个“Hotdog”立刻传开了。
因此,人们把这种可爱的面包夹香肠称为“热狗”(Hot dog),并一直沿用到现在。
典故6.Dog and the cook 狗和厨师Dog and the cook出自《伊索寓言》。
英语莎士比亚诗歌

诗歌A Grain of Sand 一粒沙子William Blake/威廉.布莱克To see a world in a grain of sand,And a heaven in a wild fllower,Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,And eternity in an hour.从一粒沙子看到一个世界,从一朵野花看到一个天堂,把握在你手心里的就是无限,永恒也就消融于一个时辰。
Love Your Life 热爱生活Henry David Thoreau/享利.大卫.梭罗However mean your life is,meet it and live it ;do not shun it and call it hard names.It is not so bad as you are.It looks poorest when you are richest.The fault-finder will find faults in paradise.Love your life,poor as it is.You may perhaps ha ve some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a poor-hou se.The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alm s-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode;the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,and have as cheering thoughts,as in a palace.The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.May be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.Most t hink that they are above being supported by the town;but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselv es by dishonest means.which should be more disreputable.C ultivate poverty like a garden herb,like sage.Do not trouble yourself much to get new things,whether clothes or friends, Turn the old,return to them.Things do not change;we chang e.Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.不论你的生活如何卑贱,你要面对它生活,不要躲避它,更别用恶言咒骂它。
莎士比亚的中英文介绍

威廉·莎士比亚 人物简介莎士比亚(W. William Shakespeare ;1564~1616)英国文艺复兴时期伟大的剧作家、诗人,欧洲文艺复兴时期人文主义文学的集大成者。
中文名: 威廉·莎士比亚 外文名: W. William Shakespeare 国籍: 英国出生地: 英格兰沃里克郡斯特拉福镇 出生日期:1564年4月23日 逝世日期: 1616年5月3日 职业: 剧作家,诗人,演员代表作品: 四大悲剧《哈姆雷特》《奥赛罗》《李尔王》《麦克白》William Shakespeare(1564-1616) is one of the most remarkableplaywrights and poets the world has ever known. With his 38 plays,154 sonnets and 2 long poems, he has established his giant position in world literature. He has also been given the highest praises by various scholars and critics the world over. In the past four hundred years or so, books and essays on Shakespeare and his works have kept coming out in large quantities.Shakekspeare went to London which afforded a wonderful enviroment for the development of drama. Shakespeare worked both as actor and playwright. He acted and wrote for the Lord Chamberlain's Men, which was later renamed the King's Men. Shakespeare established himself so well as a playwright that Robert Greene, one of the “University Wits”, resentfully declared him to be 'an upstart crow'.From about 1591 to about 1611, Shakespeare was in the prime of his dramatic career and his plays came out one after another. Shakespeare did not confine his genius merely to the theater. In 1593 and 1594, he published two narative poems, Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece , both of which were dedicated to the Earl of Southampton. He also wrote sonnets, which were published in 1609. By 1597, Shakespeare was so prosperous that he bought the largest house in Stratford, known as New Place. About 1610 Shakespeare left London and retired to Stratford, though he continued to write for some time. He died on April 23,1616.As the precise dates of many of Shakespeare's plays are still in doubt, critics hold different views to the division of his dramatic career. But generally his dramatic career is divided into four periods.The first period of shakespeare's dramatic career was one of apprenticeship. He wrote five history plays:Henry VI ,Parts I,II,and III,Richard III , and Titus Andronicus ; and four comedies: The Comedy of Errors , The Two Gentlemen of Verona , The Taming of the Shrew , and Love's Labour's Lost .In the second period, Shakespeare's style and approach became highly individualized. By constructing a complex pattern between diferent characters and between appearance and reality, Shakespeare made subtle comments on a variety of human foibles. In this Period he wrote five histories:Richard II, KingJohn, Henry IV, Parts I and II, and Henry V, six comedies: A MidsummerNight's Dream, The Merchant of Venice, Much Ado About Nothing, As You Like It, Twelfth Night, and The Merry Wives of Windsor; and Two tragedies:Romeo and Juliet and Julius Caesar.Shakespeare's third period includes his greatest tragedies and his so-called dark comedies.The tragedies of this period are Hamlet,Othello,KingLear,Macbeth,Antony and Cleopatra,Troilus and Cressida,and Coriolanus.The two comedies are All's Well That Ends Well and Measure for Measure.The last period of shakespeare's work includes his principle romantic tragicomedies:Pericles,Cymbeline,The Winter's Tale and The Tempest;and his two final plays:Henry VIII and The Two Noble Kinsmen.Shakespeare's greatest tragedies are :Hamlet,Othello,King Lear,and Macbeth.(This text is only used for non-commercial purpose.You have to have special permission to reprint this article,reproduction of material without witten permission is strictly prohibited.Contact me for permission to copy this article.This article or section may be inaccurate ,hope more experts can make comments on it.William Shakespeare was a writer of plays and poems.
