记忆方法
1、proxy 是 procuracy（代理权）被压扁的缩略：中间的 curation（打理那一段）省得只剩 -cy。芯子是"替别人办事"，所以它是代理人、代办、替身。
2、同族 procure（取得、照管）、proctor（代理人、监考人）——都从拉丁 procurare（照管、打理）来。电脑里的 proxy 就是"替身服务器"：你请求，它替你跑腿。
3、易错：复数 proxies（-y 变 -ies），别写 proxis；搭配 a proxy for（…的替代品）、act by proxy（委托他人代办）。别和 property（财产、房产）看串——两个词只差后半截，意思不相干。读 /ˈprɒk.si/（英）／/ˈprɑːk.si/（美），重音在前。

proxy: [15] Proxy has no etymological connection with ‘closeness’. It is a much contracted form of prōcūrātia, the medieval version of Latin prōcūrātiō ‘caring for, taking care of’. This was a noun derived from prōcūrāre, source of English procure. It originally entered English in the 13th century as procuracy, and gradually shrank via procracy and prokecye to proxy. The semantic notion underlying it is of ‘taking care of another’s interests’.
=> procure - proxy (n.)
- early 15c., proccy, prokecye, "agency of one who acts instead of another; letter of power of attorney," contraction of Anglo-French procuracie (c. 1300), from Medieval Latin procuratia "administration," from Latin procuratio "a caring for, management," from procurare "manage" (see procure). Also compare proctor (n.). Meaning "person who acts in place of another" is from 1610s.
