... Read more私が『英単語の語源図鑑』を使って一番「覚えやすい!」と感じたのは、単語を“パーツ”で分解して、意味のストーリーを作れるところです。ここでは、検索でも多い advocate / company / reluctant / equivocal あたりを、私なりの覚え方でまとめます。 ■ advocate(覚え方・語源・例文) advocate は「支持する/擁護する」。語源は voc(voice=声)が核で、「声を上げて言う→代弁する→擁護する」みたいに流れで覚えると残りやすいです。ad-(〜の方へ)+voc(声)+-ate(動詞化)とイメージ。 ・例文:I advocate studying words by etymology.(私は語源で単語を学ぶことを推します。) ・例文:She advocated for children’s rights.(彼女は子どもの権利を擁護した。) “advocate for 〜”の形で見ることが多いので、セットで覚えるのが楽でした。 ■ vocation / avocation(つながりで暗記) voc が共通なので、vocation は「天職・職業(呼び声に応える感じ)」、avocation は「趣味(仕事ではない呼び声)」と、同じ根っこで整理できます。単語帳だと別々に見えて混乱しがちですが、語源で束ねると記憶が整理されました。 ■ equivocal(語源) equi-(equal=同じ)+voc(声)で「声が同じ=どっちとも取れる→あいまい」。私は「どっちの声も同じで判定できない」とイメージしてます。 ・例文:His answer was equivocal.(彼の答えはあいまいだった。) ■ reluctant(語源) re-(後ろへ)+luct(fight=戦う)。前に進むより「抵抗して引き下がる」感じから、「気が進まない/しぶしぶ」。 ・例文:I’m reluctant to speak in English.(英語で話すのは気が進まない。) ■ company(語源) com-(一緒に)+pan(bread=パン)。「同じパンを分け合う仲間」→「仲間・一緒にいる人」→「会社」という広がり。私はここが一番好きで、単語の背景を知ると妙に忘れにくくなりました。 最後に、私がやってよかった小ワザは「語源メモ+自分の例文を1つだけ作る」こと。イラストでイメージ→語源で納得→例文で定着、の順にすると、復習回数が少なくても残りやすかったです。

I’ve been on this self discovery journey for quite awhile and one thing that has been a staple thought in my unlearning and reprogramming is relabeling myself as a kind person vs a “good person” or “nice girl”. In Etymology, the study of words. Nice derives from the meaning of silly or foolish.
