fraternise

短释义
As your wives or girlfriends would be quick to tell you, there’s an undercurrent of misbehavior to the term fraternize. At its most harmless, it means a kind of wild frat house behavior (frat or fraternity also coming from the Latin term fraternus, meaning “brotherly.”). At its worst, there’s an implication of illegality or skullduggery, as in the common phrase “fraternizing with the enemy.” So party on, but don’t be a traitor.
伙计们,你可能没有意识到,当你和你的朋友一起出去玩时,你会成为兄弟;也就是说,你与其他男人以友好的方式交往,就好像他们是你的兄弟一样。

长释义
As your wives or girlfriends would be quick to tell you, there’s an undercurrent of misbehavior to the term fraternize. At its most harmless, it means a kind of wild frat house behavior (frat or fraternity also coming from the Latin term fraternus, meaning “brotherly.”). At its worst, there’s an implication of illegality or skullduggery, as in the common phrase “fraternizing with the enemy.” So party on, but don’t be a traitor.
正如你的妻子或女朋友很快就会告诉你的那样,“兄弟情谊”一词背后蕴含着一种不当行为。从最无害的角度来看,它意味着一种狂野的兄弟会行为(兄弟会或兄弟会也来自拉丁语“fraternus”,意思是“兄弟情谊”)。在最坏的情况下,这可能意味着非法或诈骗,就像常见的短语“与敌人交好”一样。所以继续狂欢吧,但不要成为叛徒。

词源
fraternize (v.)1610s, “to sympathize as brothers,” from French fraterniser, from Medieval Latin fraternizare, from Latin fraternus “brotherly” (see fraternity). Military sense of “cultivate friendship with enemy troops” is from 1897 (used in World War I with reference to the Christmas Truce). Used oddly in World War II armed forces jargon to mean “have sex with women from enemy countries” as a violation of military discipline.

A piece of frat, Wren-language for any attractive young woman — ex-enemy — in occupied territory. [John Irving, “Royal Navalese,” 1946]

下面是词源的翻译(机器翻译比较难翻,参考着看)
fraternize (v.)1610s,“像兄弟一样同情”,源自法语 fraterniser,源自中世纪拉丁语 fraternizare,源自拉丁语 fraternus “兄弟般的”(参见兄弟会)。军事意义上的“与敌军培养友谊”源自1897年(用于第一次世界大战,参考圣诞节休战)。在第二次世界大战的武装部队行话中,它被奇怪地用来表示“与敌国妇女发生性关系”,这是违反军事纪律的行为。这是一篇兄弟会的雷恩语言,适合被占领土上任何有魅力的年轻女性——前敌人。 [约翰·欧文,《皇家海军》,1946 年] 相关:兄弟情谊;兄弟情谊。相关条目及更多
