score Explanation: "Score" danas obično prevodimo kao "rezultat", ali riječ doslovce znači "recka" i jer se nekad reckama na štapiću vodila evidencija gdje je to bilo potrebno, a papir nije bio pri ruci. "Score" kao glagol u smislu "ostvariti recku" imamo i u mladenačkom sleng izrazu "I scored", što bi značilo "osvojio sam djevojku", da ne velimo nešto slobodnije... Vidim da se i ovdje "recka" spominje u navodnim znacima tako da se svakako radi o neformalnom žargonskom izrazu, a ne terminu. score - a notch or mark for keeping an account or record. http://www.dictionary.com/browse/score?s=t |
