喜樂美語

From the word’s history

From Middle English honour, from Anglo-Norman honour, from Old French honor, from Latin honor.

源自古法文 honor，來自拉丁文 honor。

Wiktionary

You can picture honour as the high standing you hold in other people's eyes — the respect a community gives you, and the proud, upright feeling of deserving it. Everything else is this respect being earned, shown, awarded, sworn by, or lived up to.

可以想成「在別人眼中所站的高度」：別人投來的敬重，加上自己心裡那份「配得上這份敬重」的踏實與光榮感。整個字其實都圍著這份敬重打轉——有時是去贏得它、有時是公開表現它、有時是把它做成獎章頒出去、有時是拿它來發誓、有時是要守住它不讓它跌落。
