rap.er
n.（名詞）
<注釋>Although three senses are listed in our entry for the verbrape, it is unlikely that many people think of the word as having more than one sense.The Latin wordrapere from which rape comes had an even wider range of meanings, including .to ravish..It must be kept in mind, however, that most of its senses had to do with the notion of seizing or carrying offand that sexual violation was confined to the one sense.In the case of the Middle Englishwordrapen, taken from Latin rapere, fewer senses existed, but some of them differed quite significantly from any in which we would use the word today.It could mean .to fix or set a certain time. (.The tyme he wild [would] not rape. ) or .to carry off somebody to heaven from earth. ( .the visions of seynt poul wan [when] he was rapt in to paradys. ). The past participlerapt has survived in Modern English, where it has become a separate wordreferring to states of deep delight or absorption,far removed from the hideous cruelties ofrape. The sense involving these cruelties was probably present in Middle Englishand has largely taken over the word.
盡管在動詞rape 這一詞條中，我們列了三個意思， 但實(shí)際很多人并不認(rèn)為該詞有這么多意思。Rape 從其起源的拉丁語單詞 rapere 甚至有更多的詞義， 其中包括.使銷魂.這一含意。然而，我們必須記住所有這些詞義都同.用武力奪取或搶走.有關(guān)，性方面的侵犯只是其中的一個意思。在中古英語中，由拉丁語rapere 一詞產(chǎn)生的動詞 rapen 的詞義已經(jīng)減少， 不過其中有些詞義和現(xiàn)在的詞義完全不同。它可以意為.約定或確定時間.(.他不肯 約定時間. )或.由人間帶某人進(jìn)入天堂.( .圣保羅進(jìn)入天堂 的情景. )。 該詞的過去分詞rapt 仍存在于現(xiàn)代英語中， 在這里它已成為一個單獨(dú)的單詞，意為一種極其興奮或被深深吸引的狀態(tài)，這個意思與rape 一詞丑惡的詞義相去甚遠(yuǎn)。 與殘酷行為有關(guān)的詞義可能在中世紀(jì)就存在，后來被保留了下來
