trial是试验的意思，但是这个词说出来更多是讨厌的意思，nuisance是同意词，后面的irritating是形容词，讨厌的人给人的感觉就是irratating的感觉，这个就不用记中文意思了，三个词联系起来记会更有效的。

The Greeks then passed the sack, as it were, to the Latin-speaking Romans, who transmitted their word saccus,"a large bag or sack," to the Germanic tribes with whom they traded, who gave it the form .sakkiz (other peoples as well have taken this word from Greek or Latin, including speakers of Welsh, Russian, Polish, and Albanian).

In his "Political Dictionary" he later explained that negativism was the key word; that nabob, from the Urdu, meaning governor, hence self-important potentate, was the ideal practitioner of a negative outlook (see the use by John Adams in 1776); and that nattering was meant to denote complaining, but that Stewart Alsop, his pundit-mentor, had told him that the British use was closer to chattering.

他后来在其《政治词典》一书中解释说，&怀疑主义&是上面这个短语的关键词；来自乌尔都语的&大佬&本指总督，所以引申为妄自尊大的要人，用来指持怀疑主义观点者再合适不过（见约翰·亚当斯1776年对nabob一词的用法[注11]）；而nattering这个词被用来指发牢骚，但对他进行言传身教的权威评论家斯图亚特·阿尔索普告诉他说英国人对该词的使用接近chattering。

My sense is that "tax" conjures up images big, ravenous governments sucking the little guy dry;"offset" connotes restoring things to their natural balance; and "fee," like "fine," sounds somehow punitive or compensatory, a punishment for wrongdoing or a bill for services rendered.

我认为&税&这个词会使问题扩大化。就好像政府在贪婪地压榨干弱小的群众。&补偿&这个词就会相对含蓄，它意味着把事物恢复到一种自然平衡的状态。至于&费&这个字，就像&罚款&一样，是一种对错误行为或者对未完成义务的补偿。它听上去更具有惩罚的含义。
