北京时间6月10日晚,英格兰队在世界杯首场比赛中仅凭巴拉圭后卫的乌龙球1-0小胜,由于两支劲旅在赛场发挥平平,赛后,虽胜尤败的英格兰队遭致各方强烈的批评。

  请看外电相关报道:Former champions Argentina and England claimed hard-fought victories on a sweltering second day of the World Cup finals in Germany. England, who have not won the World Cup for four decades, were fortunate to emerge 1 with a 1-0 win in Frankfurt, relying on an early own goal by Paraguay captain Carlos Gamarra.


  报道中的own goal就是足球术语“乌龙球”,即“球员误把球踢入本方的球门内”。从语言学的角度说,英语“own goal”(自进本方球门的球)与粤语的“乌龙”一词发音相近,而粤语的“乌龙”有“搞错”等意思。大约在上个世纪六、七十年代,own goal(乌龙球)由香港记者翻译而来。


  也有说法认为,“乌龙”源于广东的一个民间传说:久旱之时,人们祈求青龙降下甘露,以滋润万物,谁知,青龙未至,乌龙现身,反而给人们带来了灾难。后来,“乌龙”引用到足球赛场上,指本方球员误打误撞,将球弄入自家大门,不仅不得分,反而失分。


  举个例子: Tom headed the ball into his own goal.(汤姆把球顶进了自己的球门。)



vi.(从水中等)出来,出现,浮现,形成
  • The baby's head was starting to emerge from the womb.婴儿的头开始从母亲的子宮中露出来。
  • It's still hard to tell who will emerge victorious.鹿死谁手尚难逆料。
