hero 英雄

来自希腊语heros,半神半人,通常为神和凡人的后代,特别是宙斯在人间的私生子。来自PIE*ser,观察,保护,词源同observe,conserve.这些神和人的后代通常具有超人的勇气和力量,而且多在古希腊神话中留下诸多英雄事迹,因此引申词义英雄。参照电影《诸神之战》。

hero
hero: [14] Hero is a Greek word – hérōs – applied in ancient times to men of superhuman ability or courage, and in due course by extension to demigods. At first it was used in English simply to render this Greek notion, and it was not until the late 16th century that the extended and more general sense ‘brave or otherwise admirable man’ began to emerge. ‘Chief character in a story’ is a late 17th-century development.

English acquired the word via Latin hērōs as heros, but it was not long before this became interpreted as a plural, and a new singular hero was formed. Heroin [19] comes from German heroin, said to have been coined from the delusions of heroism which afflict those who take the drug.
