phoenix

noun

/ˈfiːnɪks/

(in stories) a magic bird that lives for several hundred years before burning itself and then being born again from its ashes（传说中的）凤凰，长生鸟
- to rise like a phoenix from the ashes (= to be powerful or successful again)雄起如再生的凤凰
词源from Old French fenix, via Latin from Greek phoinix ‘Phoenician, reddish purple, or phoenix’. The relationship between the Greek senses is obscure: it could not be “the Phoenician bird” because the legend centres on the temple at Heliopolis in Egypt, where the phoenix is said to have burnt itself on the altar. Perhaps the basic sense is ‘purple’, symbolic of fire and possibly the primary sense of Phoenicia as the purple land (or land of the sunrise).
