词汇 england expects every man will do his duty
词源
England expects every man will do his duty. These were Lord Nelson’s famous words to his men at Trafalgar on October 21, 1805. A British member of Parliament has written that the officialese or gobbledygook so common in government services everywhere today would express the same sentiment this way: “England anticipates that, as regards the current emergency, personnel will face up to the issues and exercise appropriately the functions allocated to their respective occupational groups.” It should be noted that Nelson’s famous sentence was first re- ported as “Say to the fleet, England expects that every man will do his duty.” Nelson’s flag lieutenant, Captain Pasco, suggested that it be changed to the above.
