记忆“anachronism”可以将其分解为三个部分:前缀“ana-”,词根“chrono-”,和后缀“-ism”。

1. “Ana-” 前缀通常表示“相反”、“向后”或“相反的”,可以想象时间被倒转了。
2. “Chrono-” 词根与“时间”有关,强调时间的概念。
3. “-ism” 后缀常用来构成名词,表示状态或行为。

结合这三部分,可以想象为“一个时间上的相反行为或状态”,即某个事物或行为不属于它所处的历史时期或上下文,就像时间倒流一样不协调。这样,“anachronism”就可以记忆为“时间上的不协调或错误”。

anachronism
anachronism: [17] The Greek prefix anameant ‘up’, and hence, in terms of time, ‘back’; Greek khrónos meant ‘time’ (as in English chronicle): hence Greek anakhronismós ‘reference to a wrong time’. From the point of view of its derivation it should strictly be applied to the representation of something as happening earlier than it really did (as if Christ were painted wearing a wristwatch), but in practice, ever since the Greek term’s adoption into English, it has also been used for things surviving beyond their due time.
=> chronicle
