註釋
When a Southerner favors a relative, he or she is not giving that person special privileges; rather, the Southerner looks like that relative. Favor can be either transitive— She favors her father — or intransitive with a compound subject: She and her father favor. This sense of favor goes back to early modern English: 「This young lord Chamont/Favors my mother」 (Ben Jonson). The verb derives from the noun favor, which was used from the 15th to the 19th century to mean 「appearance, aspect; the countenance, face」: 「What makes thy favor like the bloodless head/Fall'n on the block?」 (Tennyson). This sense of the noun is now archaic, but the verb thrives in the English of the Southern United States.
當一個南方人favors 一個親屬, 他(或她)不是給這個人特權;而是這個南方人長得像那個親屬。Favor 可以是及物的—— 她像她父親—— 或不及物的,與復合主語連用: 她和她父親相像。 Favor 的這種含義可以上溯到早期的現代英語: 「這個年輕的貴族像我媽媽」 (本·傑森)。這動詞來源於名詞favor, 在15世紀到19世紀被作為「外貌,樣子;面貌,臉部」的意思用:「什麼使你的臉毫無血色,腦袋耷拉下來?」 (坦尼森)。名詞的這一用法現在已經陳舊了,但動詞仍在美國南部英語中流行
