1、光线义来自拉丁 radius——轮子上的一根根辐条:光像辐条从中心放射出去。同族 radius(半径)、radio(无线电)、radiant(光芒四射的)都出自这根"放射线"。
2、人造丝 rayon 早年借"光"命名的行头——有丝光;鳐鱼的 ray 是另一个词(拉丁 raia,来历不明),只是撞名。
3、a ray of hope 一线希望,gamma ray 射线,X-ray X 光照片也是这束线。拼写 r-ay,/reɪ/。

英语词源

ray
ray: Ray the ‘beam of light or energy’ [14] and ray the fish-name [14] are two different words. The former comes from rai, the Old French descendant of Latin radius ‘spoke of a wheel, ray’ (source also of English radiant, radio, radius, etc). The textile term rayon was coined from it in the early 1920s. Ray the fish-name comes via Old French raie from Latin raia, a word of unknown origin.
=> radio, radius
ray (n.1)
"beam of light," c. 1300, from Old French rai (nominative rais) "ray (of the sun), spoke (of a wheel); gush, spurt," from Latin radius "ray, spoke, staff, rod" (see radius). Not common before 17c. [OED]; of the sun, usually in reference to heat (beam being preferred for light). Science fiction ray-gun is first recorded 1931 (but the Martians had a Heat ray weapon in H.G. Wells' "War of the Worlds," 1898).
ray (n.2)
type of fish related to sharks, early 14c., from French raie (13c.), from Latin raia, of unknown origin.
