健康是指一个人在肉体、精神和社会等方面都处于良好的状态,而不是仅仅指无疾病、不虚弱而已。英文Health(健康)一词来自古代英语单词haoth,意指值得庆贺的状况,即安全或完好的状况。 为健康干杯,这种习惯由来已久,可能来自古代人宗教仪式上对上帝的祭祀。以后希腊人养成了相互祝酒的习惯,并为罗马人所沿用。到17世纪初期,为健康祝酒在英国已经十分盛行,祝酒是庄严地跪着进行的。
Health refers to a person in good physical, mental and social aspects, not just disease-free, infirm. English The word “health” comes from the ancient English word haoth, meaning a celebration of worth, a safe or intact condition. To a healthy toast, this habit has a long history, may come from the ancient rituals of God’s sacrificial offering. Afterwards, the Greeks developed the habit of toasting each other and were used by the Romans. By the early 17th century, toasting for health was already very prevalent in Britain, and toasting was solemnly kneeling.
