词源记忆法
英语单词chancellor来自拉丁语cancellarius,后者来自cancellus(方格栏杆,教堂中分隔听众和讲坛的栏杆),原指教堂中负责开关栏杆、引导座位的人。因为他坐在栏杆(cancellus)旁边,所以被称为cancellarius。后来cancellarius的职责范围还包括文书记录,工作场所除了教堂还包括法庭。该词进入英语后变成chancellor,表示国王的秘书。在现代西方国家,chancellor可以表示众多职务,包括:政府首脑,如德国、奥地利和瑞士的政府首脑就是chancellor,译为“总理”;外交部长,如南美等国;此外还可以表示与司法相关的一些政府职务。
