註釋
Reek is a word that can be said to have been degraded by the company that it has kept. The Old English word r?, one of two ancestors of our word, meant 「to emit vapor, steam, or smoke,」 while the other Old English ancestor, r?, meant 「to fumigate, expose to smoke,」 or 「to cause to emit smoke, burn incense.」 Burning incense and fumigating are certainly a far cry from the sort of thing now denoted by the verb reek. But at least in one case Old English r?n did mean 「to stink,」 hardly a surprise when one considers how bad some smoke smells. Middle English reken, the descendant of these two Old English words, never meant 「to stink,」 but it could refer to a stench while meaning 「to rise, ascend.」 It would seem that the various exhalations of heated persons and animals, of freshly shed blood, and of smoke referred to by Middle English reken and its Modern English descendant reek eventually overwhelmed the word, so that as far as concrete senses are concerned, we largely think of it as meaning 「to stink.」
Reek 這個詞可以說是近墨者黑的典型。 意為「散發出蒸氣或煙」的古英語單詞是reocan 的兩個詞源之一, 而另一個古英語詞源是recan , 意為「熏,與煙接觸,」或「使散發煙,焚香」。 焚香和熏的義項與今天使用的動詞reek 的意義已相差甚遠。 但至少古英語中reocan 確有「發出惡臭」之意,想到煙有多難聞,生出這一意思也就不足為奇了。 中古英語reken 是這兩個古英語詞的後代, 但卻從無「發出惡臭」之意,在表示「上升,登高」之意時可以指臭氣。中古英語reken 一詞可指發熱的人和畜的各種呼氣、剛流出的鮮血以及煙, 其現代英語傳下的詞reek 最終覆蓋了此詞的本來意義, 以致我們一般認為該詞的具體意思是「發出難聞的氣味」
