Christ
英 [kraɪst]
助记提示
1. Christ 译为“基督”是音译，按照广东话粤语而翻译的，最早翻译的为“ 基利斯督 ”，后来简称为“基督”。
2. 因为利玛窦最早是到了澳门，并且在广东肇庆最早开始的宣教工作，所以他的很多发音都带有粤语色彩。利玛窦不是英国人，作为一位耶稣会的传教士，他按照拉丁文的“Christos”，发音更接近希腊文的“Χριστοs”，用今天的汉语拼音来拼写应该是接近于“Hristos”（“赫利斯多斯”）。
3. 耶稣（Jesus）是名字，基督（Christ）是职位，好比某某主席、某某书记、某某经理、某某老师一样，前面的某某是名字，后面的是其所任职位。现在有好多自称为基督的，其实他们不是基督，基督只有一位，就是耶稣，除他以外，再没有基督。所以经常看到“耶稣”被合在一起称为“耶稣基督”。

英文词源
- Christ (n.)
- title given to Jesus of Nazareth, Old English crist (by 830, perhaps 675), from Latin Christus, from Greek khristos "the anointed" (translation of Hebrew mashiah; see messiah), noun use of verbal adjective of khriein "to rub, anoint" (see chrism). The Latin term drove out Old English Hæland "healer, savior," as the preferred descriptive term for Jesus.
A title, treated as a proper name in Old English, but not regularly capitalized until 17c. Pronunciation with long -i- is result of Irish missionary work in England, 7c.-8c. The ch- form, regular since c. 1500 in English, was rare before. Capitalization of the word begins 14c. but is not fixed until 17c. The 17c. mystical sect of the Familists edged it toward a verb with Christed "made one with Christ."
