单词 | protasis |
释义 | protasis/ˈprɒtəsɪs /noun (plural protases /ˈprɒtəsiːz/) Grammar The clause expressing the condition in a conditional sentence (e.g. if you asked me in if you asked me I would agree). Often contrasted with apodosis.But it's my guess that most people take the first two clauses of the song as the protases of a conditional, rather than as rhetorical questions....
OriginLate 16th century: via Latin from Greek protasis 'proposition', from pro 'before' + teinein 'to stretch'. |
