Did You Know?

The affection an aficionado has for their favorite subject isn't merely emotional—it's also etymological. Back in the early 1800s, English borrowed aficionado from the past participle of the Spanish verb aficionar, which means "to inspire affection." That verb comes from the Spanish noun afición, meaning "affection." Both Spanish words trace to the Latin affectiō (which is also an ancestor of the English word affection). Affectiō, in turn, is from afficere ("to influence") and gave English speakers the noun and verb affect.

Aficionado[狂熱者]對他們最喜歡的事物的感情不僅僅是emotional[情感上的]-這也是etymological[詞源上的]。早在1800年代初，英語aficionado就從西班牙語動詞aficionar的過去分詞中借來的，意思是“to inspire affection[激發(fā)感情]”。該動詞來自西班牙語名詞afición，意為“affection[感情]”。兩個西班牙語單詞都可以追溯到拉丁語“affectiō ”（也是英語單詞“ affection”的祖先）。反過來，Affectiō是來自afficere（“to influence[影響]”），它為英語使用者提供了名詞和動詞的affect[情感]。
