Taikonaut
北京时间十月十五日上午九时整,“神舟”五号载人飞船由“长征二号F”运载火箭发射升空。外电中有这样的报道:A Long March 2F
rocket called the Shenzhou V —"divine ship" in Chinese — carried a
single "taikonaut" named Yang Liwei, 38, following a trail blazed by
Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin and American Alan Shepard in 1961.
1999年我国成功发射“神舟号”无人宇宙飞船后,世界各大媒体争相报道这个消息。在英文的有关中国不久就会发射载人宇宙飞船的报道中,第一次使用了
Taikonaut,即“太空飞行员”。这个新词是将英文中原有astronaut即“宇航员”一词中意思为“宇航”或“航天”的astro去掉,而加上
汉语中“太空”的汉语拼音Taikong的主要部分组成的,意义不言自明。Taikonaut这个新词的出现,显示了我国航天事业的迅猛进步。
