A sentient being is one who perceives and responds to sensations of whatever kind --- sight, hearing, touch, taste, or smell. Sentient ultimately comes from the Latin verb sentire, which means "to feel" or "to perceive," and is related to the noun sensus, meaning "sense." A few related English words are sentiment and sentimental, which have to do with emotions, sensual, which related to more physical sensations, and the trio of assent, consent, and dissent, which involve one's expressions of agreement (or disagreement in the case of dissent) in thought and feeling with another.
词源词根演化:sent-/sens- --> sentire (Latin v. to feel) -->sentient (adj.)
你可能会猜测sentient这个词的意思与sense(感觉)有关。前几个字母拼写sent-或sens-通常都会暴露这种含义。sentient being(有感觉的人)指的是对各种感觉有感知与响应的人,这些感觉包括视觉,听觉,触觉,味觉或嗅觉。sentient最终来自于拉丁动词sentire,意思是“感觉”或“感知”,与名词sensus(感觉)也有关系。英语中还有一些相关的单词sentiment和sentimental,都与情感有关系;sensual则更多的关联物理感觉;assent,consent和dissent这三个词表达的则是认同(assent,consent,或不认同dissent,主要指与另一个的思想或者感觉方面。
