单词 charisma
释义

charisman.

/kəˈrɪzmə/
Forms: Also charism. Plural charismata /kəˈrɪzmətə/, charisms.
Etymology: < Greek χάρισμα, plural-ατα , (esp. in the New Testament) favour given, gift of grace, < χαρίζ-εσθαι to show favour, < χάρις grace, favour. In the plural, the Greek form charismata has been in use since the word's introduction; in the singular, the Anglicized charism was for long the usual form, but has been supplanted by the re-borrowed charisma (the only form used in sense 2). N.E.D. (1889) enters this under the headword charism and gives the pronunciation as (kæ·riz'm) /kærɪz(ə)m/.
1. Theology. A free gift or favour specially vouchsafed by God; a grace, a talent.
