英文詞源
- prestidigitator (n.)
- 1843, from French prestidigitateur, a hybrid coined 1830 by Jules de Rovère (who sought a new word, "qui s'accorderait mieux à ses nobles origines" to replace escamoteur and physicien), roughly based on Latin praestigiator "juggler" (see prestigious); influenced by Italian presto "quick," a conjuror's word (see presto), and by Latin digitus "finger" (see digit).
雙語例句
- 1. Dentist: a prestidigitator who, putting metal into your month, pulls coins out of your pocket.
- 牙醫: 一個變戲法者, 他把一些鐵片放進你的口里, 卻從你的口袋里拿走你的錢.
