【she】在多语言下的意思、翻译、词源、用法、例句
英语(English)
词源(Etymology)
From Middle English sche, hye (“she”), from earlier scho, hyo, ȝho (“she”), a phonetic development of Old English hēo, hīo (“she”), from Proto-Germanic *hijō f (“this, this one”), from Proto-Indo-European *ḱe-, *ḱey- (“this, here”). Cognate with English dialectal hoo (“she”), Scots scho, shu (“she”), Saterland Frisian jo, ju (“she”), West Frisian hja (“she”), North Frisian jü (“she”), Danish hun (“she”), Swedish hon (“she”). More at he.
Despite the similarity in appearance, the Old English feminine demonstrative sēo (“that”) is probably not the source of Middle English forms in sch-. Rather, the sch- developed out of a change in stress upon hío resulting in hió, spelt ȝho (ȝh = hȝ, compare wh = hw, lh = hl, etc.), and the h was palatalised into the sh sound. Similar alteration can be seen in the name Shetland, from Old Norse Hjaltland; ȝho is the immediate parent form of Middle English scho and sche.

用法注意(Usage notes)
- Since at least the 1920s and 30s, some gay or queer men refer to other gay or queer men and/or themselves with she/her pronouns, as well as with other feminine terms such as Miss and girl, to signal their sexuality rather than their gender identity;[1] this has sometimes been termed "the gay she":[2][3]
- 1997, Anna Livia, Kira Hall, Queerly Phrased: Language, Gender, and Sexuality, page 359:
- In English, gay men often use the female pronoun she to refer to other gay men:
- SPEAKER A: Speaking of fags, where is Miss Thing?
- SPEAKER B: You mean Ron?
- SPEAKER A: Yeah.
- SPEAKER B: I don't know where she is.
- (Rudes and Healy ['Is She For Real'] 1979: 61)
- […] this linguistic strategy is not intended to reflect a feminine persona so much as to dissociate the speaker from heterosexual alliance. As such, it is a statement of sexual orientation rather than of sexual [/gender] identity. The men who use these feminine forms to refer to themselves or to other gay men are designating themselves, as well as the referents, as traitors to heterosexual masculinity.
- 1994, George Chauncey, Gay New York: Gender, Urban Culture, and the Making of the Gay Male World, 1890-1940, pages 56-57:
- One indication of the extent to which men became accustomed to thinking of fairies as pseudo-women was provided in 1939 by a State Liquor Authority investigator who casually referred to a fairy (who went by a woman's name but dressed in conventional male attire) as "she," even though he was testifying at a formal hearing of the Authority. "We did get in a conversation with Beverly," he testified, "and she stated she liked us very much." When asked by an attorney whether he meant "she" or "he," he explained that the fairies "address themselves by these effeminate names and refer to one another in the effeminate terms," and promptly continued: "She [the fairy] made a date with Mr. Van Wagner and myself for Saturday night."
