trust

★★★★
🇺🇸 /tɹˈʌst/
adj 编号: T02385 牛津3000 BNC #1160 COCA #1841
trust 的核心是“把某人或某事交托给对方,相信它不会辜负你”。它既可表示信任、依靠,也可表示受托管理财产的法律安排,还可作动词表示相信、托付或赊账。
💡 记忆钩子
想象你把贵重物品交到一个可靠的人手里:你相信他,所以对他有 trust;你把东西 trust 给他,就是托付;如果把财产交由第三方替别人管理,就形成法律上的 trust。由“交托并相信”还可引申出赊账——先把货给人,相信对方以后会付款。
📝 学习建议
  • 先掌握最常见的“信任、相信、依靠”和“托付”几个意思,再学习法律上的“信托”以及较旧的“赊账”义。
  • 不要把 trust 只理解成“相信某句话”;它常常指对人的可靠性或对某事的依靠。
📖 中文释义
adj
  • rare 安全的
    📖 古旧用法,表示安全、受到保护,和“把东西交给可靠对象保管”的核心观念有关。
    obsolete
  • rare 可靠的
    📖 古旧用法,表示忠实、可靠;现代英语通常用其他更常见的形容词表达这个意思。
    obsolete
  • common 信托的
    📖 法律语境中表示与信托安排或信托财产有关。
    💡 常放在法律名词前作定语,如 trust property。这里不是“值得信任的”,而是“属于信托安排的”;表示“值得信赖的”应使用更自然的其他表达。
    The trust property must be managed for the child.
    信托财产必须为这个孩子进行管理。

🌳 词源
源自中古英语,最终与表示“坚固、可靠”的原始印欧语词根有关;它与 true、tree 同源,并与 tryst 构成同源异形词。
From Middle English trust, trost (“trust, protection”). Long considered a borrowing from Old Norse traust (“confidence, help, protection”), from Proto-Germanic *traustą, but the root vocalism is incompatible, so trust has come to be considered a reflex of an unattested Old English *trust, from a rare zero-grade Proto-Germanic variant of the same root also attested in Middle High German getrüste (“host”). Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *deru- (“be firm, hard, solid”). Cognates Cognate with Saterland Frisian Traast (“comfort, solace”), West Frisian treast (“comfort, consolation, solace”), Dutch troost (“comfort, consolation”), German Trost (“comfort, consolation”), Low German Troost (“comfort, consolation”), Luxembourgish Trouscht (“consolation”), Danish trøst (“comfort, solace”), Icelandic traust (“faith, trust; confidence”), Norwegian Nynorsk trøst, trøyst (“consolation”), Swedish tröst (“comfort, consolation”), Gothic 𐍄𐍂𐌰𐌿𐍃𐍄𐌹 (trausti, “covenant, pact”). Doublet of tryst. More at true, tree.
