nil是什么意思

nil

英 [n?l] 美 [n?l]

nil 零

縮寫自拉丁語nihil,空無，沒有，來自ne-,沒有，hilum,瑣碎，小東西。即什么都沒有，引申詞義零，空無。

nil: nil: [19] Latin nil was a contracted form of nihil ‘nothing’ (source of English nihilism [19]). This in turn was a shortening of an earlier nihilum, a compound formed from the negative particle nī and hīlum ‘small or trivial thing’, and thus denoted etymologically ‘not a jot’.
=> nihilism
nil (n.): "nothing," 1833, from Latin nil, contraction of nihil, nihilum "nothing, not at all; in vain," from ne- "not" (see un-) + hilum "small thing, trifle," of unknown origin.
