detective的注释：

4. The first detective may have come into existence before the word itself. C. Auguste Dupin, Edgar Allan Poe's hero in “The Murders in the Rue Morgue,” which is considered the world's first real detective story, was introduced to the world in 1841. Nine years later we find the first recorded instance of the word detective, although the phrases detective police and detective policeman, from which it was shortened, are recorded first in 1843. Hence, Dupin precedes all recorded instances of detective, just as he precedes all other detectives.
第一个侦探在“侦探“这个词出现以前就出现了。C·奥古斯·杜平，埃德加·爱波·伦的小说《莫格街谋杀案》（这本书被认为是世界上第一本真正的侦探小说）中的主人公，在1841年被介绍给全世界。虽然词条detective police 和 detective policeman (detective就是这两者的缩写）首次被记载是在1843年，但九年后，我们才找到对 detective 这个词的第一次记载。 迄今为止，杜平最早记载detective ， 正如他就是最早的侦探一样
