记忆方法
记忆“dexterity”的方法是将其分解为“de”和“exterity”。想象有一个人（de表示“出”或“从”），他的手指（为“exterity”的一部分，意为“技巧”或“灵巧”）非常灵活，就像魔术师一样，能够做出各种复杂的动作，表现出高超的技巧，从而形成对“dexterity”灵活和技巧性的记忆。

英语词源
- dexterity (n.)
- 1520s, from Middle French dexterité (16c.), from Latin dexteritatem (nominative dexteritas) "readiness, skillfulness, prosperity," from dexter "skillful," also "right (hand)" (source of Old French destre, Spanish diestro, etc.), from PIE root *deks- "on the right hand," hence "south" to one facing east (cognates: Sanskrit daksinah "on the right hand, southern, skillful;" Avestan dashina- "on the right hand;" Greek dexios "on the right hand," also "fortunate, clever;" Old Irish dess "on the right hand, southern;" Welsh deheu; Gaulish Dexsiva, name of a goddess of fortune; Gothic taihswa; Lithuanian desinas; Old Church Slavonic desnu, Russian desnoj). The Latin form is with the comparative suffix -ter, thus meaning etymologically "the better direction." Middle English dester meant "right hand," and in heraldry dexter means "on the right side."
