词组 | Anzac |
释义 | Anzac noun a soldier of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps who served in the Gallipoli campaign; any Australian or New Zealand soldier AUSTRALIA, 1915 This acronym was originally used as a telegraphic code, but quickly moved into colloquial use among soldiers and thence civilians at home; technically referring only to the Gallipoli soldiers or veterans of that campaign, it has been generalised to any World War 1 veteran, and thence later to any Australian and New Zealand soldier of World War 2. Anzacs have been traditionally held in high reverence in both countries, and the virtues ascribed to them, such as bravery, pride, honesty, hardiness, disregard for military authority and sense of humour, have become generalised as positive notions of national character.
