喊出價錢的人
兩個意思共用同一個畫面:有人開價,而且不只一個人在開。差別只在於,開價是為了「把東西帶走」,還是為了「把工作接下來」。
noun · B2
Someone who offers to pay a particular amount of money for something that is being sold, especially at an auction where several people offer prices against each other.
出價者
Picture a person in a crowd putting a hand up and calling out a number, with other hands ready to go up straight after. The word holds the moment of naming a price against other people, not the moment of walking away with the prize.
Wiktionary gives bidder as Middle English bidder, biddere, equivalent to bid + -er: simply 'the one who bids'. The same entry still lists rare senses like 'one who commands' and 'one who begs', which come from older meanings of bid.
根據本批評估所附的 Wiktionary 資料,bidder 來自中古英語 bidder/biddere,就是 bid 加上 -er:「出價的那個人」。同一筆資料還留著「發號施令的人」「乞討的人」這種很罕見的解釋,那來自 bid 早年「命令、請求」的意思。今天日常會用到的,幾乎只剩「出價」這一條。
