英文词源
- relegate (v.)
- 1590s "to banish, send into exile," from Latin relegatus, past participle of relegare "remove, dismiss, banish, send away, schedule, put aside," from re- "back" (see re-) + legare "send with a commission" (see legate). Meaning "place in a position of inferiority" is recorded from 1790. Related: Relegated; relegating; relegable.
中文解释
1. delegate, delegattion => relegate.2. delegate, delegattion => Latin legare "send as a deputy, send with a commission, bequeath," from lex (genitive legis) "contract, law" (see legal).3. 本来应该是向前走、送的,前途一片光明,结果却将其往回送、往后边儿送,让其走回头路,很显然就是降职、降级了。往前是提升,往后是降级,因为往后是曾经待过的职位,一路攀升、前进后再把送回原来待过的职位。4. legacy => relegate.
