昨天陪我儿子背单词，背到他最讨厌的茄子的时候，发现怎么拼写很像鸡蛋呢
（他很爱吃鸡蛋），我就告诉他可能因为发明英文的人认为茄子和鸡蛋一样有营养！小孩子似懂非懂的，但马上对茄子有了很深的印象，而且表示以后要多吃茄子，因为营养丰富嘛。（嘿嘿，一举两得）

分享：【what】总有人问为啥what/why/where等词会被某些人读成hwat/hwy/hwere？

如《纸牌屋》里的Underwood总统。这事其实是这样：what古音就是读hwat的。wh来自原始印欧语PIE的*kʷ ，在古英语里本就写作hw读成[hw]。如《贝奥武夫》里的Hwæt跟今天的What差不多。中世纪时，从英国南部开始，hw[hw]逐渐转变成wh[w]。到18世纪，连知识分子也接受了这样的写法读音。这种变化叫wine-whine merger(也叫glide cluster reduction)。不过苏格兰爱尔兰和美国南部一些地区没受到merger影响，如今仍把wh读成古音[hw]。而且早年很多字典里wh是读[hw]的，后来才把两种读音都收录。《纸牌屋》里下木总统这样说话，一是因为他来自南部，二是因为把what读成hwat很复古怀旧，比较带范儿，符合人物性格。你也可以试试

Chapter 1: Winning Stratagems
             第一套 胜战计

           第一计 瞒天过海
crossing the sea under camouflage

▌原文

备周则意怠；常见则不疑。阴在阳之内，不在阳之对。太阳，太阴。

▌英文注释

Mask your real goals, by using the ruse of a fake goal, until the real goal is achieved. Tactically, this is known as an 'open feint': in front of everyone, you point west, when your goal is actually in the east.

                  第二计 围魏救赵
relieving the state of Zhao by besieging the state of Wei

▌原文

共敌不如分敌；敌阳不如敌阴。

▌英文注释

When the enemy is too strong to be attacked directly, then attack something he holds dear. Know that he cannot be superior in all things. Somewhere there is a gap in the armour, a weakness that can be attacked instead. The idea here is to avoid a head-on battle with a strong enemy, and instead strike at his weakness elsewhere. This will force the strong enemy to retreat in order to support his weakness. Battling against the now tired and low-morale enemy will give a much higher chance of success.

             第三计 借刀杀人
killing someone with a borrowed knife

▌原文

敌已明，友示定，引友杀敌，不自出力，以《损》推演。

▌英文注释

When you do not have the means to attack your enemy directly, then attack using the strength of another. Trick an ally into attacking him, bribe an official to turn traitor, or use the enemy's own strength against him.

                     第四计 以逸待劳
waiting at one's ease for the exhausted enemy

▌原文

困敌之势，不以战；损刚益柔。

▌英文注释

It is an advantage to choose the time and place for battle. In this way you know when and where the battle will take place, while your enemy does not. Encourage your enemy to expend his energy in futile quests while you conserve your strength. When he is exhausted and confused, you attack with energy and purpose.
