基本英英词源记法例句Thesaurus例句
adj.巨大的¹⁰⁰;化钛的n.T-泰坦尼克号船名
Adjective:
of great force or power该词源出古希腊神话。天神乌拉诺斯Uranus和地神该亚Gaea生有子女12名，6男6女，统称Titans,其后裔也称Titans,通译“泰坦或提坦诸神”。他们在母亲的唆使下起来推翻了父亲的统治，拥戴Titans 之一的克洛诺斯Kronos/Cronos为王。但克洛诺斯之子宙斯zeus又把自己的父亲打倒，在奥林匹斯山Olympus建立了新的统治，成为第三代神王。Titans 与宙斯顽强争斗，最后被打败，并囚于冥界。由于这些Titans都是力大无比的巨人，所以我们有时译之为“巨人族”、“巨神”，Titan 一词也常喻指“巨人”。titanic 就是从Titan 派生的形容词，表示“巨大的”或“力大无比的”。金属元素钛的名称 titanium是德国化学家克拉普罗特M.H.Klaproth,1743-1817在1795年以Titan 命名的。
