There are two famous riddles about chickens. One investigates the reasoning behind the chicken‟s desire to cross the road (“to get to the other side”), while the other poses the ontological quandary: “which came first, the chicken or the egg?”有两个关于小鸡的难解问题,一个是为什么小鸡喜欢过马路,另一个就是先有鸡还是先有蛋这个本体论难题。
We shan‟t attempt to answer the question in a philosophical or biologicalmanner, but we can answer it lexicographically. And, looking in the Oxford English Dictionary (OED), we can reveal that the answer is… not conclusive.也许我们无法从哲学或生物学角度回答这个问题,但是我们可以从词汇涵义考虑它。
但看过牛津英语词典里的定义后我们发现答案是。
无法确定。
Chicken鸡Interesting, the earliest recorded use of chicken in English refers to the …young of the domestic fowl‟ in a simile. The word dates to an Old English interlinear gloss of the Lindisfarne Gospels: …Suæ henne somnigas cicceno hire.‟ This is taken from Matthew 23:37, where Jesus says of Jerusalem that He has …longed to gather your children together as a hen gathe rs her chicks under her wings‟ (in the New International Version).有趣的是,英语中chicken一词最早用来比喻还没长大的家禽。
