<注釋>In this world of impermanenceit seems that we have tried to hold on to a few things at least by using the wordpermanent. Coming ultimately from the present participlepermanôns of Latin permanôre, .to endure,. Middle Englishpermanent (first recorded around 425) also had to do with the enduring and the stable. When we consider some of the applications of this adjective,as inpermanent press, permanent tooth, we are struck by the relative evanescence of the so-called permanent.But perhaps never more so than in the case of the permanent wave.When asked what this phenomenon was,one journalist wrote in 932,.(so far as my experience goes): a wave that is anything but permanent..
在這個無常的世界里，看起來我們已經(jīng)試圖保持一些事物，至少通過使用permanent 這個詞來保持。 最終來自意為.持久，持續(xù).的拉丁文permanere 的現(xiàn)在分詞 permanens， 中世紀英語permanent （大約在425年首次記錄）也與持久和穩(wěn)固的意思有關。 當我們考慮這個形容詞的一些用法時，例如在句子耐久熨壓,恒牙 中， 我們便會想到所謂永恒的相對的短暫性。但可能從不會因波浪式發(fā)型而想到此。當被問到這種現(xiàn)象是怎么回事時，一個新聞記者于932年寫道：.（以我的經(jīng)驗而言）：卷曲發(fā)型恰恰不是永恒的.
