Michael, mike, mic, been tampered with


After Monday’s debate, Donald J. Trump said his mike might have been tampered with and that he was right to comment on a beauty queen’s weight.
The definitive autobiography of one of the most famous personalities in television history-an intimate, revealing, and riveting memoir that will show a Larry King the world has never known, up close and personal.

Celebrated as "the most remarkable talk-show host on TV ever" by TV Guide and "master of the mike" by Time magazine, for a half-century the world's most influential figures have been telling their story to Larry King. Now the man in suspenders shares his riveting and inspiring story, from his humble roots in Depression-era Brooklyn to the heights of celebrity as host of CNN's Larry King Live.


mike
n. also mic (mīk)
A microphone.
tr.v., miked, mik·ing, mikes.
To supply with or transmit through a microphone.

Michael, 暱稱 Mike,

猶太、基督、伊斯蘭三教信奉同一位神,三教共同承認有資格替上帝傳話的天使只有兩位,就是米迦勒和加百列(Gabriel)。Michael身兼軍人和金融家的守護神,在命名時遠比加百列受歡迎。

Michael, St.:聖彌格;聖彌額爾;米迦勒(基):總領天使之一(默十二7);慶日在九月廿九日。現多用Micah。
天使長米迦勒是天國裡最偉大的戰士。爆發善、惡大戰時,善方以米迦勒為首,惡方以撒旦為首,善方的戰呼就是Michael......


Michael在法文拼做米歇爾(Michel)、西班牙文是米蓋爾(Miguel)、俄文是米卡勒(Mikhail),發音都比邁可更接近米迦勒。它的暱稱有麥克(Mike)、米奇(Mickey),比較特殊的是Mick(滾石合唱團主唱米克.傑格使用),在英美俚語中亦做為愛爾蘭人的統稱,而且有鄙視之意。可想而知,取這名字的愛爾蘭人為數不少。


Michael字面的意思是「神的相貌」,但也可以當作疑問句:「誰才像真神?」(Who is like the Lord?)。

As Satan shall be no more, so Michael shall be no more.

(Les Miserables by Victor Hugo)
