词汇	sir galahad
词源	Sir Galahad. The prototype of the chivalrous male, the origi- nal Sir Galahad may have been added to the Arthurian legends by Welsh author and clergyman Walter Map in about 1200. The son of Lancelot and himself a Knight of the Round Table, he is the hero of the Quest for the Holy Grail. His name is still syn- onymous with a courteous gentleman, mostly used in the same lighthearted, even humorous ways that it has been for a century or so.
