"humble" 是英語中兼具形容詞和動詞詞性的多義詞,其核心含義圍繞"謙遜"與"卑微"展開。根據牛津詞典的解釋,作形容詞時主要指"不炫耀的,虛心的",描述對自身成就保持低調的态度。劍橋詞典進一步指出,該詞可引申為"地位低下的",如形容出身卑微的社會階層。
在動詞用法中,humble 表示"使謙卑"的行為過程。柯林斯詞典強調該詞常以被動語态出現,如"被現實挫敗銳氣",這種用法常見于文學作品和日常口語。詞源學顯示,humble 源自拉丁語 humilis(低矮的),與"humus"(土地)同源,暗示着貼近地面的謙卑姿态。
該詞的深層文化内涵體現在英語諺語"humble pie"中,原指中世紀仆人食用的動物内髒餡餅,現演化為"忍辱含垢"的隱喻表達。心理學研究顯示,適度的humble态度能增強團隊協作效率,該結論被《人格與社會心理學雜志》收錄。在宗教語境中,《聖經》箴言16:19使用該詞警示驕傲的危害:"謙卑與敬畏雅威的賞賜,是財富、尊榮和生命"。
