intuition

n.直覺 [The act or faculty of knowing or sensing without the use of rational processes; immediate cognition.]

ps. 什麼就直覺, 就是你知道某件事可是不是由推理而來的。比方說,有你感覺你朋友在騙你。

ex. He had an intuition that there was something wrong.
他憑直覺知道有些地方不對勁。

 

字源:intuition 與 tuition(學費)長得這麼像,它們之間有關係嗎?答案是有的。

因為 tuit(us )這個字根的意思是watch, ...(雖然算是個小字根)

像是 tutor導師它的概念就是"watch over"

intuition的概念是"to gaze, to contemplate",所以有直覺的字意。

tuition的概念是"a looking after, guarding",在早期當作教導,現在指學費。

 

 

'Insight Intuition and Instincts"

影片說明:這部短片用心理學的角度介紹了insight, intuition, 與 instincts

(聲音比較小聲,而且講很慢,看的時候很容易讓人睡著阿~~)下面是摘要:

上面三個字中文翻成本能、直覺,但其實內涵不太一樣。

1) instinct ,但這邊是指由biological drive所控制的。
比方說,天生看到紅色的東西,就會聯想到有危險。

2) intuition,它是一種由emotion, feeling所產生的impulse。
比方說,有你感覺你朋友在騙你。

3) insight,去看出兩件事關聯的能力
比方說,你知道罵別人髒話會使別人會生氣。

instinct unconscious的
intuition subconscious的 (潛意識)
insight conscious的

最後作者說可以透過靜坐、催眠、自律來增強這三方面的能力。

inveigh /ɪnˈveɪ /

v.強烈抗議;猛烈抨擊 [to protest strongly or attack vehemently with words; rail]

 

字源: L. invehī "to attack with words"-- in + vehī "pass. inf. of vehere to ride, drive" ex. vehicle。

為什麼in-vehi(drive)會有"to attack with words"的意思呢,它的概念是drive violent words to other people而來的。

 

聯想:in + veigh(weigh) 給別人沈重的字句-->強烈抗議;猛烈抨擊

 

 

 

 

 

invective /ɪnˋvɛktɪv/

n.惡言謾罵 [=abuse. Vehement or violent denunciation, censure, or reproach]

inveigle /ɪnˋveɡl/

v.誘騙 [to entice, lure, or ensnare by flattery or artful talk or inducements]

ps.什麼是inveigle,比方說你用一些技巧手段使原本不願意的人去作某些事,這時候就可以說這個動作是inveigle。

 

ex. With patience and diplomacy, she can eventually inveigle him into marrying her .
她靠耐心和交際手腕,到頭來是能引誘他與她結婚的。

 

字源:inveigle的 blind有關係唷。

他的發展有些字形變化較大,它從 ME. envegle來的,又是源於 O.F aveugler,是從拉丁文的 aboculus而來的,ab-這個字首大家應該熟悉了,它就是away的意思,後面的字根ocul是眼睛的意思,以後會遇到。away eye的概念就是blind的意思啦。

音:veigle [ veɪgl ] → veil [ veɪl ]

 

inveigle <> request directly

 

----------------------------------------

較有lure的意味的騙

 

inveigle  v.誘騙 ( 通過勸誘、討好欺詐 )

decoy v.誘騙 ( 用誘餌吸引或設陷阱 )

 

delude        v.誘騙                    [字根lud = play]
