Did You Know?
Whether about Zeus punishing King Lycaon for trickery or a perfectly coiffed werewolf drinking a piña colada in a London bar, tales of lycanthropy—the transformation of a person into a wolf or wolf-like creature—have captivated imaginations for millennia. The word lycanthropy comes from the Greek words lykos, meaning “wolf,” and anthrōpos, meaning “human being.” Halloween, the time of year when you’re most likely to encounter a lycanthropic individual (or several), also happens to be the perfect occasion to drop such etymological knowledge on their tufted little ears. You know, as a treat.
无论是关于宙斯惩罚诡计多端的国王莱卡翁，还是一个发型完美的狼人在伦敦的酒吧里喝着 a piña colad ，关于 lycanthropy 的故事——把人变成狼或类似狼的生物——吸引着人们千年的想象。lycanthropy 这个词来自希腊单词 lykos，意思是“wolf「狼」”，和 anthrpppos，意思是“human being ”。万圣节是一年中你最可能遇到狼人(或几个)的时候，恰好是对着他们毛茸茸的小耳朵传授这些词源学知识的绝佳时机。你知道，这是一种招待。
