<注釋>When in a Middle English text written before 400it is said that a part of a temple fell down and .mad a gret distruccione of ethnykis,.one wonders why ethnics were singled out for death.The wordethnic in this context, however, means .gentile,. coming as it does from the Greek adjectiveethnikos, meaning .national, foreign, gentile..The adjective is derived from the nounethnos, .people, nation, foreign people,. that in the plural phraseta ethnô meant .foreign nations.. In translating the Hebrew Bible into Greek,this phrase was used for Hebrewyom, .gentiles.; hence the sense of the noun in the Middle English quotation.The nounethnic in this sense or the related sense .heathen. is not recorded after 728, although the related adjective sense is still used. But probably under the influence of other words going back to Greekethnos, such asethnography and ethnology, the adjectiveethnic broadened in meaning in the 9th century. After this broadeningthe noun sense .a member of a particular ethnic group,.first recorded in 945, came into existence.
在一篇400年以前的中古英文文章中寫道,一座神殿的一部分倒塌了並.導致一個種族的徹底毀滅.,人們想知道為什么一個種族單單被挑出去死。但是ethnic 在這個上下文中的意思是.異教徒., 來自於希臘語的形容詞ethnikos , 意為.民族的,外來的,異教的.。該形容詞源自名詞ethnos, 意為.民族、種族、外來人., 它的複數形式ta ethne, 意為.外來民族.。 在把希伯來聖經翻譯成希臘語的過程中,這一詞組被用作希伯來語中的goyim, 意為.異教徒.; 因此名詞的含意在中世紀英文被引用。即使相關含意講的名詞ethnic 在728年之後也未被收錄,儘管這時相關的形容詞含義已被套用, 但大概在那些可追溯到古希臘語ethnos 的詞, 如ethnograthyethnology影響下, 形容詞ethnic 在9世紀時對詞義進行了擴充。 這次擴充後,名詞詞意為.某一特定的種族群體中的一員.,在945年被首次收錄並開始存在
