&34;Much has been made of the &39;Silicon Valley Exodus.&39; The conventional wisdom holds that the discovery of feasible remote work arrangements during this pandemic has employers—and their employees—fleeing the Bay Area for more affordable destinations.&34; — Sam Liccardo, The San Francisco Chronicle, 6 Feb. 2021

“人們對(duì)‘硅谷大遷徙’(Silicon Valley Exodus)有很多看法。’傳統(tǒng)觀點(diǎn)認(rèn)為，在流感大流行期間發(fā)現(xiàn)可行的（可實(shí)施的）遠(yuǎn)程工作安排讓雇主和他們的員工感覺(jué)到逃離舊金山灣區(qū)更經(jīng)濟(jì)（更實(shí)惠）的決定。”

Did You Know?

The Biblical book of Exodus describes the departure of the Israelites from Egypt, so it&39;s no surprise that the word has come to refer more generally to any mass departure. The word itself was adopted into English (via Latin) from Greek Exodos, which literally means &34;the road out.&34; The Greek word was formed by combining the prefix ex- (meaning &34;out of&34;) and hodos, &34;road&34; or &34;way.&34; Other descendants of the prolific hodos in English include episode, method, odometer, and period. There are also several scientific words that can be traced back to hodos. Anode, and cathode can refer, respectively, to the positive and negative electrodes of a diode, and hodoscope refers to an instrument for tracing the paths of ionizing particles.

“The Biblical book of Exodus ”《出埃及記》中描述了以色列人離開(kāi)埃及的過(guò)程，所以這個(gè)詞更普遍地指任何大規(guī)模的離去（大遷徙）也就不足為奇了。這個(gè)詞本身(通過(guò)拉丁語(yǔ))是從希臘文 Exodos 引入英語(yǔ)的，字面意思是“ the road out「出去的路」”。這個(gè)希臘單詞由前綴ex-(意思是“out of「離開(kāi)」”)和hodos組成，hodos是“road”或“way”的意思。英語(yǔ)中hodos的很多衍生詞包括episode「插曲」, method「方法；措施」，odometer「里程表」和period「時(shí)期；階段」。還有一些科學(xué)詞匯可以追溯到hodos。Anode「陽(yáng)極」和cathode「陰極」可參照二極管的正負(fù)極，而hodoscope「荷多儀；輻射計(jì)數(shù)器」是指an instrument for tracing the paths of ionizing particles.「追蹤電離子路徑的儀器」。
