handicap 中文词源
handicap 让步赛,妨碍,残疾,生理缺陷
来自短语hand in cap,一种流行于17世纪的娱乐游戏,大致规则如下:甲乙双方有两件价值不同的物品,请丙当裁判来评估价差,然后补齐差价进行交换。同时,甲乙双方交纳保证金用手拿着放进帽子里,如果裁判丙估出的差价甲乙双方都同意的话,则他们进行物品交换,同时保证金归裁判,如果估出的差价甲乙双方都不同意的话,物品不交换,但是保证金也归裁判,如果一方同意另一方不同意,但是不同意的一方保证金归同意的一方,物品不交换,但可以避免更大程度损失。其中的关键在于裁判为使个人的利益最大化,势必要进行尽可能公正的估价,这样才会树立名声,别人才会找他,如果甲乙双方都认为裁判不公,则没人再找这个裁判。并由该游戏引申词义让步赛,如马赛,球赛,棋赛等等,以及用于指残疾人,生理缺陷的人,即需要让的人,含冒犯意。
