behind 英文词源

behind

behind: [OE] Behind was compounded in Old English times from the prefix bi- ‘by’ and hindan ‘from behind’. This second element, and the related Old English hinder ‘below’, have relatives in other Germanic languages (German hinten and hinter ‘behind’, for example), and are connected with the English verb hinder, but their ultimate history is unclear. Modern English hind ‘rear’ may come mainly from behind.
=> hind, hinder

behind (adv.)

Old English behindan "behind, after," from bi "by" + hindan "from behind" (see hind (adj.)). The prepositional sense emerged in Old English. Euphemistic noun meaning "backside of a person" is from 1786. Phrase behind the times is from 1905. Behind the scenes (1711) is from the theater; figurative sense attested by 1779.

behind 同义词解析

after, behind, at the back of

这些词均有"在……后面"之意。

after和behind用来表地点时，前者强调的是顺序的先后，而后者侧重方向和位置的前后关系。请比较：The student sat after me.那个学生坐在我后面。(我坐在他前面)。The student sat behind me.那学生坐在我背后。after与behind用于指时间时，前者强调时间的先后顺序，而后者则着重于表示"落后……"或"迟于……"的概念。试比较：Who ruled after James I?詹姆斯一世之后是谁统治的?You are forty minutes behind schedule.你比规定的时间迟了40分钟。after多用于表示因时间上的先后而造成顺序的前后场合，behind则常用于仅指位置上的前后关系。请比较：Please shut the door after you.请随手关门。Please shut the door behind you.请关上你身后的门。

at the back of：这个前置词短语既可指具体的位置的先后，又可用于指抽象的概念。

back, backward, hind, behind

这些词均有"在后，向后"之意。

back： 作为副词或形容词时，强调所修饰物的位置以及动作运动方向。

backward： 可用于人或物，指向后的，落后的或迟钝的。

hind： 指成对并且分前后的东西的"后面的"。

behind： 指一物同它物相对的位置或场所。
