<注釋>The wordombudsman looks as if its constituents would be familiar, judging from the element man, but it is difficult to think of whatombuds could mean. Ombudsman is from Swedish, a Germanic language in the same family as English, andman in Swedish corresponds to our word man. Ombud means .commissioner, agent,. coming from Old Norseumbodh, .charge, commission, administration by a delegacy,. umbodh being made up of um, .regarding,. and bodh, .command.. In Old Norse anumbodhsmadhr was a .trusty manager, commissary.. In Swedishanombudsman was a deputy who looked after the interests and legal affairs of a group such as a trade union or business. In 809 the office ofriksdagens justitieombudsman was created to act as an agent of justice, that is, to see after the interests of justice in affairs between the government and its citizens.This office of ombudsman and the wordombudsman have been adopted elsewhere, as in individual states in the United States.The term has also been expanded in senseto include people who perform the same function for business corporations or newspapers.
從ombudsman 這個詞的 man 這一組成部分看，它的構(gòu)成似乎很眼熟， 但接下去就很難令人想起ombuds 到底是什么意思了。 Ombudsman 這個詞源于和英語同屬于日耳曼語族的瑞典語， 而man 這個詞在瑞典語中的意思恰好和英語中的 man相對應(yīng)。 Ombud 的意思是.調(diào)查團成員，代表.， 源于古斯堪的納維亞語umbodh， 意為.由代表團負責(zé)，調(diào)查，管理.， umbodh 是由 um， 即.注視.和 bodh .命令、管理.兩部分所構(gòu)成。 在古斯堪的納維亞語中，umbodhsmadhr 指一個.值得信任的管理者或代表.。 在瑞典語中，ombudsman 曾指一個管理一個群體如工會、商行的利益和法律事務(wù)的人。 809年成立了司法巡查局 ，它是一司法機構(gòu)， 即專門管理調(diào)查政府和公民之間事務(wù)的司法權(quán)益。巡檢局和ombudsman 這個詞也被其它地區(qū)采用， 如美國一些個別的州?，F(xiàn)在這個名詞術(shù)語的使用范圍比以前更廣，還包括在商務(wù)或報紙新聞業(yè)負有此項職能的人
