中古英语 neighebor
from Old English nôahgebôr

gebôr [dweller] * see bheu…-
gebôr [居民] *参见 bheu…-

<注释>Loving one`s neighbor as oneself would be much easier,or perhaps much more difficult,if the wordneighbor had kept to its etymological meaning. The source of our word,the assumed West Germanic form.n3hgabôr, was a compound of the words.nôhwiz, .near,. and .bôram, .dweller, especially a farmer.. A neighbor, then, was a near dweller.Nôahgebôr, the Old English descendant of this West Germanic word, and its descendant in Middle English, neighebor, and our Modern English neighbor have all retained the literal notion,even though one can now have many neighbors whom one does not know,a situation that would have been highly unlikely in earlier times.The extension of this word to mean .fellow. is probably attributable to the Christian concern with the treatment of one`s fellow human beings,as in the passage in Matthew 9:9 that urges love of one`s neighbor.
象爱自己一样爱邻居会更容易，也可能更难，如果neighbor 这个词保持其词源意义的话。 这个词的来源，假定在西日耳曼语中形式为nahgabur， 是nehwiz .附近的.和 buram .居住者，尤指农夫.的合成词。 那么邻居就是附近的居住者。Neahgebur 这个西日耳曼词发展的古英语形式， 中世纪英语形式nerghebor 及现代英语 neighbor 形式， 都保持了字面意义，即使现在一个可能有许多人都不认识的邻居，这是一种以前很不可能有的情况。这个词的引申意义.人.大概出自基督徒关心如何对待世人，比如在《马太9：9》中就有要求热爱自己邻居的篇章
