      Wiki登大雅之堂 進入牛津英語大詞典

      If you think "wiki" doesn't sound like English, you are right. But it's English now. This word born on the Pacific Island of Hawaii finally got an entry into the latest edition of the online Oxford English Dictionary along with 287 other new words.

      It has earned it.

      "Words are included in the dictionary on the basis of the documentary evidence that we have collected about them. A while ago this evidence suggested that wiki was starting to make a name for itself," OED chief editor John Simpson said in a statement.

      "We tracked it for several years, researched its origins and finally decided it was time to include it in the dictionary."

      But "Wiki Wiki", meaning "quick" in Hawaiian, has a very different meaning in its new host language: a type of Web page designed so that its contents can be edited by anyone who accesses it.

      That the word acquired a new meaning is attributed to the fact that commenting and editing on Internet Web sites became faster, the OED's principal editor of new words, Graeme Diamond said.

      "There was no delay in submitting a comment," Diamond said.

      The most famous example is the popular Internet encyclopaedia Wikipedia. Diamond said new Internet-age concept of "wiki" fits well with the 120-year-old dictionary.

       

      如果你覺得wiki(維基)的發(fā)音聽起來不太像英語,那就對了。但它現(xiàn)在已成為英語中的一員。這個誕生于太平洋夏威夷群島的詞終于和其它287個新詞一起被收入最新版在線牛津英語大詞典。

      這可是它自己贏得的“地位”。

      《牛津英語大詞典》主編約翰·辛普森在一份聲明中說:“我們一般都是根據收集到的資料證據來收錄新詞。不久前,有資料顯示,wiki已經開始有了知名度。”

      “我們花了幾年的時間來追蹤這個詞、考察它的起源,最終決定現(xiàn)在將它收入字典。”

      但在夏威夷語中意為“快”的"Wiki Wiki"在英語中可是另有所指,指的是讀者可以自行編輯的網頁。

      據《牛津英語大詞典》新詞主編格萊姆·戴蒙得介紹,wiki的這個新含義主要是源于在互聯(lián)網上進行評論和編輯的速度越來越快這一事實。

      他說:“人們可以在網頁上快速發(fā)表評論。”

      Wiki最著名的例子當屬如今十分流行的互聯(lián)網百科全書Wikipedia(維基百科)。戴蒙得說,wiki是互聯(lián)網時代的一個全新概念,它完全有資格進入這本有120年歷史的英語字典。
