academy & academic
词源:
在希腊神话中有一位绝世美女海伦,少女的时候,她被来自雅典的英雄忒修斯劫走。海伦的两个哥哥来到雅典,要求归还自己的妹妹,并威胁要动用武力。正在这危急时刻,一个名叫阿卡德摩斯(Akademos)的农夫告诉了他们海伦的位置。两兄弟很快就夺回了自己的妹妹。而Akademos也因为使雅典避免了一场战争而成为英雄,得到神灵的庇佑,他的橄榄树林年年丰收。这片橄榄树林也因此得名Akademeia。
后来,哲学家柏拉图在这片橄榄树林里创建了学园。人们将他的学园也称为Akademeia。英语单词academy就来源于柏拉图创建的Akademeia学园。原本专指柏拉图所创建的学园,但后来词义进一步扩充,泛指各种学术研究性机构。

genius
根据古希腊神话,每一个人出生时都有一位介于神人之间的守护神被分派来终生守护在人的身边,而守护神的希腊文为 "daimon",拉丁文则为 "genius"(birth),即发生、起源、诞生之意。古罗马神话里的守护神之所以称为Genius就是因为他在一个新生命诞生时方才出现。gen-这个拉丁词根所代表的第一个含意即“起源、诞生”。善良的人们对神寄予厚望,乞盼在婴儿呱呱落地时这位守护之神能赐给孩子优秀品质、非凡的能力。久而久之,守护神的名字genius就成了天才、天赋的代名词。
