英文词源
- phenomenal (adj.)
- 1803, "of the nature of a phenomenon," a hybrid from phenomenon + -al (1). Meaning "remarkable, exceptional" is from 1850.
[Phenomenal] is a metaphysical term with a use of its own. To divert it from this proper use to a job for which it is not needed, by making it do duty for remarkable, extraordinary, or prodigious, is a sin against the English language. [Fowler]
Related: Phenomenally.
中文解释
1、pheno- "appear, show, be seen" + -men- "passive suffix" + -al.2、字面含义:that which appears or is seen. 即:被看到的事物。=> 由此,表示:现象。
