<注释>When we read the statement .Should we not be monstrously ingratefull if we did not deeply resent such kindnessô. (from theSermons of Isaac Barrow, written before '77), we may be pardoned for momentarily thinking we are in never-never land.For a time ranging roughly from the last part of the 7th century to the second half of the 8th,the wordresent did refer to gratefulness and appreciation as well as injury and insult. Resent has also been used in other senses that seem strange to us, such as .to feel pain. or .to perceive by smell..The thread that ties the senses together is the notion of feeling or perceiving.The Old French source of our word,resentir, .to feel strongly,. is made up of the prefix re-, acting in this case as an intensive, and sentir, .to feel or perceive.. There is much that one can feel,but at least for now this word has narrowed its focus to a feeling of indignation.当我们读到.假如我们对这种仁慈不深表感激,我们就应该极度地忘恩负义吗.(选自伊萨克·巴罗的启示 ,写于'77年以前)这一叙述时, 我们瞬间地想到我们处于人烟稀少的边远地区就可以得到原谅了。在大致从7世纪后期到8世纪下半期这段时间内,resent 一词确实意指感激和赏识,同时又可以指伤害和侮辱。 Resent 还可以用于在我们看来很古怪的其它意义上, 如.感到痛楚.或.通过气味感知.等。把这些意义联结在一起的线是感觉或感知的概念。该词意为.强烈地感觉.的古法语语源resentir 是由用于加强语气的前缀 re- 以及意为.感觉或感知.的 sentir, 构成的。 可以感觉到的东西很多,但至少现在这个词的重点用法已被集中于愤怒的感觉注释>
