deceit 欺骗
de-, 向下,离开。-ceit, 拿,握,词源同capture, conceit,conceive. 引申义拿走,欺骗。
- deceit (n.)
- c. 1300, from Old French deceite, fem. past participle of deceveir (see deceive).
Deceit is a shorter and more energetic word for deceitfulness, indicating the quality; it is also, but more rarely, used to express the act or manner of deceiving. The reverse is true of deception, which is properly the act or course by which one deceives, and not properly the quality; it may express the state of being deceived. Fraud is an act or series of acts of deceit by which one attempts to benefit himself at the expense of others. It is generally a breaking of the law; the others are not. [entry for "deceit" in "The Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia," 1902]

单词分析
这3个名词均含有“欺骗”之意。deceit指歪曲实情,惯于说谎或蓄意欺骗。
deception语气较弱,一般用词,侧重于具体的骗人行为。但有时并无欺骗行为,只是玩弄把戏,故弄玄虚而已。
fraud一般用于犯罪行为的欺骗,通常指政治或经济活动中的舞弊行为。
