起源:喝酒碰杯的习俗有很多种解释。一种是早期欧洲人认为碰杯的声音可以驱逐恶灵。另一种解释坚持认为碰杯时双方各将自己的酒向对方的酒杯中倾注一些,从而证明酒中无毒。然而还有另一种则认为:碰杯是一种象征性的相信酒是干净的,不需证明有没有放毒。
Each of those explanations is false. While making a racket for the purpose of scaring off evil spirits underpins other customs that carry over to this day (e.g., the tolling of church bells at weddings, and the loud shouts and noisemaking at the stroke of twelve on New Year\'s Eve), the "clink" is a relatively new aspect of toasting and, as such, came along well after folks had relinquished the notion that demons both lurked in every corner of typical day-to-day existence and could be sped on their way by a bit of noise. As for sloshing wine from one glass to another, drinking vessels would need to be filled to the brim to effect that, and if they were, such practice would waste valuable potables (because some would be sure to land on the floor) and likely douse the toasters too. And while the poisoning of enemies has long been part of the ordinary mayhem of the world, the practice of touching of one\'s filled glass to those of others when participating in a toast is unrelated to suspicion of the wine\'s having been tampered with; such killings were not so common at any nebulous point in the past that a signal to one\'s host indicating he was clear of suspicion of attempted murder needed to be enshrined in the canon of social gestures.
