单词	Sherpa
释义	Sherpa /ˈʃəːpə / noun (plural same or Sherpas) 1A member of a Himalayan people living on the borders of Nepal and Tibet, renowned for their skill in mountaineering.Often inseparable from their association with world-class mountaineering, the Sherpas of Nepal inhabit much of the Solu-Khumbu or Khumbu regions of the Himalayas.... Unlike Americans or Europeans, Himalayan Sherpas consider high-altitude climbing to be decidedly unglamorous, dangerous, dirty work. Until recently, Nepal's legendary Sherpas, who play a pivotal role in almost every ascent of Himalayan peaks, just watched from the sidelines as accomplished climbers from the West minted money with guided tours up Everest. 1.1 informal A civil servant or diplomat who undertakes preparatory work prior to a summit conference. Origin From Tibetan sharpa 'inhabitant of an Eastern country'.
