Did You Know?
You might expect the root of sagacious to be sage, which, as an adjective, means "wise" or, as a noun, "a wise person." Despite similarities of spelling, sound, and sense, the two words are not closely related. Sagacious comes from sagire, a Latin verb meaning "to perceive keenly." Etymologists believe that sage comes from a different Latin verb, sapere, which means "to taste," "to have good taste," or "to be wise."
您可能认为 sage是 sagacious 的词根，它的形容词意思是“wise【聪明的】”，或者作为名词的意思是“a wise person【聪明的人】”。 尽管从拼写、声音及意义都有相似之处，但这两个词并没有密切的关联。 Sagacious 来自 sagire，一个拉丁动词，意思是“ to perceive keenly【敏锐地感知】”。 词源学家认为，sage 来自一个不同的拉丁动词 sapere，意思是“to teste【品尝、品味】”、“to have good taste【好品味】”或“to be wise【聪明】”。
