<注釋>The history of the wordsfey and fay illustrates a rather fey coincidence. Our wordfay, .fairy, elf,. the descendant of Middle Englishfaie, .a person or place possessed of magical properties,. and first recorded around 390,goes back to Old Frenchfae, .fairy,. the same word that has given usfairy. Fae in turn comes from Vulgar LatinF3ta, .the goddess of fate,. from Latin f3tum, .fate.. Iffay goes back to fate, so doesfey in a manner of speaking, for its Old English ancestorge meant .fated to die.. The sense we are more familiar with, .magical or fairylike in quality,.seems to have arisen partly because of the resemblance in sound betweenfay and fey.
feyfay 兩詞的歷史展示了一個十分奇特的巧合。 我們現在所使用的詞fay, .神仙,小精靈,. 是中古英文faie, .具有魔力的人或地方.的派生詞, 它首次記載於約390年左右,回溯到古法文fae .神仙., 這一詞產生了我們現在的fairy。 Fae 依次產生於俗拉丁語Fata, .命運女神,.和拉丁語 fatum, .命運。. 如果fay 回到命運的意思, 可以說fey 也是如此, 因為其古英文原形fôge 的意思即為.注定死亡。. 我們現在更熟悉的意思.性質上具有魔力的或似神仙的.,似乎部分是由於fayfey 在讀音上的相似而產生的
