<注释>The history of the wordsfey and fay illustrates a rather fey coincidence. Our wordfay, .fairy, elf,. the descendant of Middle Englishfaie, .a person or place possessed of magical properties,. and first recorded around 390,goes back to Old Frenchfae, .fairy,. the same word that has given usfairy. Fae in turn comes from Vulgar LatinF3ta, .the goddess of fate,. from Latin f3tum, .fate.. Iffay goes back to fate, so doesfey in a manner of speaking, for its Old English ancestorge meant .fated to die.. The sense we are more familiar with, .magical or fairylike in quality,.seems to have arisen partly because of the resemblance in sound betweenfay and fey.
feyfay 两词的历史展示了一个十分奇特的巧合。 我们现在所使用的词fay, .神仙,小精灵,. 是中古英语faie, .具有魔力的人或地方.的派生词, 它首次记载于约390年左右,回溯到古法语fae .神仙., 这一词产生了我们现在的fairy。 Fae 依次产生于俗拉丁语Fata, .命运女神,.和拉丁语 fatum, .命运。. 如果fay 回到命运的意思, 可以说fey 也是如此, 因为其古英语原形fôge 的意思即为.注定死亡。. 我们现在更熟悉的意思.性质上具有魔力的或似神仙的.,似乎部分是由于fayfey 在读音上的相似而产生的
