Did You Know?

"Every tone was a testimony against slavery, and a prayer to God for deliverance from chains. The hearing of those wild notes always depressed my spirit, and filled me with ineffable sadness," wrote Frederick Douglass in his autobiography. Reading Douglass's words, it's clear that ineffable means "indescribable" or "unspeakable." And when we break the word down to its Latin roots, we see how those meanings came about. Ineffable comes from ineffābilis, which joins the prefix in-, meaning "not," with the adjective effābilis, meaning "capable of being expressed." Effābilis comes from effārī, "to speak out," which in turn comes from ex- and fārī, meaning “to speak.”

弗雷德里克·道格拉斯在他的自传中写道:“Every tone was a testimony against slavery, and a prayer to God for deliverance from chains. The hearing of those wild notes always depressed my spirit, and filled me with ineffable sadness” 读道格拉斯的话,可以看出 ineffable 指的是“indescribable「难以形容」”或“unspeakable 「无法形容」”。 当我们拆分它的拉丁词根就可以看出含义是如何产生的。 Ineffable 来自 ineffābilis,前缀 in- 与形容词 effābilis 的结合,前者是“不”,后者是“能够表达”。 Effābilis 来自 effārī,“to speak out「发言」”,而后者又来自 ex- 和 fārī,意思是“to speak「说出来」”。
