Did You Know?

You may be familiar with the old saying caveat emptor, nowadays loosely translated as "let the buyer beware." In the 16th century, this adage was imparted as a safeguard for the seller: allow the buyer to examine the item (for example, a horse) before the sale is completed, so the seller can't be blamed if the item turns out to be unsatisfactory. Caveat in Latin means "let him beware" and comes from the verb cavēre, meaning "to be on guard." Perhaps you've also heard caveat lector: "let the reader beware," a warning to take what one reads with a grain of salt. English retained caveat itself as a noun for something that serves to warn, explain, or caution. The word caution is another descendant of cavēre.

您可能已经熟悉了俗语的caveat emptor,如今粗略地翻译为“let the buyer beware[买家当心、购者自慎]”。 在16世纪,这句格言是对买方的一种保障:允许买方在交易完成前检查该物品(例如,一匹马),因此,如果该物品最终令人不满。 拉丁语中的Caveat意思是“let him beware[让他当心]”,来自动词cavēre,意思是“to be on guard[保持警惕]''也许您还听到过 caveat lector:“[请读者当心、读者要擦亮眼睛],这是一个警示,提醒您阅读要有保留的(保持警惕)。英语将caveat本身解释为名词,用以警告,说明或警示某些事物。 caution是cavēre的另一个后代。
