They were talking of people I did not know. 'How do they spend their time there?' some one asked.
Then I, who had been sitting too long silent, raised my voice. 'Ah, that's a mysterious question, when you think of it, how people spend their time. We only see them after all in glimpses; but what, I often wonder, do they do in their hushed and shrouded hours—in all the interstices of their lives?'
'In the what?'
'In the times, I mean, when no one sees them. In the intervals.'
'But that isn't the word you used?'
'It's the same thing—the interstices—'
Of course there was a deaf lady present. 'What did you say?' she inquired, holding out her ear-trumpet for my answer.

bondsman, surety, bail, bondservant, henchman
bondsman
n.
IN BRIEF: A male slave; A male bound to serve without wages;
Tutor's tip: A "bondman" is a serf or a slave, while a "bondsman" is a person who provides bail.
**包衣:「奴隸﹑奴僕。譯自滿州語。清末入關前,凡所獲各部落俘虜,均編為包衣,分屬八旗。鑲黃﹑正黃﹑正白上三旗隸屬內務府,充驍騎﹑護軍﹑前鋒等營兵卒。屬下五旗則分隸王府,為私家的世僕。」所以,作者仿bondsman,鑄一新字:bondservant。不過,本書有些地方將「包衣與主人(康熙)」這一副標題轉成正標題,造成不一致。

Henchmen:總統的“走狗”
|
在烏克蘭“電話門”事件推動下,特朗普深陷彈劾調查。除了直接導火索以外,使民主黨人對他“忍無可忍”的原因還有很多,包括在他身後勤勤懇懇的“走狗”。
|
這些人試圖模糊、擾亂乃至阻礙外界對這位總統的審視,為達目的不擇手段。時報觀點欄目作者米歇爾·科特爾(Michelle Cottle)將這些人稱為特朗普的“henchman” 。
|
Henchman起源於古英語,由hengest(公馬)和man(人)組成,最早意為新郎,後來被用來指蘇格蘭高地酋長的隨從,並在此基礎上衍生出親信、黨羽的意思,進入現代英語。由於常含貶義,henchman一詞也被翻譯為“走狗”。
