<注释>.The latest fiction. to most people means the latest novels or storiesrather than the most recently invented pretense or latest lie.All three senses of the wordfiction point back to its source, Latin fictiô, .the action of shaping, a feigning, that which is feigned.. Fictiô in turn was derived from fingere, .to make by shaping, feign, make up or invent a story or excuse.. Our first instance offiction, recorded in a work composed around 42, was used in the sense .invention of the mind, that which is imaginatively invented..It is not a far step from this meaning to the sense .imaginative literature,. first recorded in 599.
.最新的小说.对大多数人来说是指最新的小说或故事，而不是指最新捏造出的谎言。Fiction 这一词的所有的三个意思都追溯到拉丁语中的词源 fictio ，.假装，伪造，做假的行为。. 反过来fictio 则起源于 fingere， .捏造一个故事或编一个借口.。 我们可以在一部写于42年前后的作品中找到fiction 的第一个例子， 文中所用的意思是.头脑中的虚构，是充满想象的虚构的.。这一意思已经和599年首次记录的.虚构的文学作品.这层意思相去不远了
