Hi, Cagey

Thank you for the advice; I’ve just managed to find the word, epitome.
http://encarta.msn.com/thesaurus_561567900/byword.html

Just in case you wanted to know, the following also fit:

«paragon»
«acme»
«apotheosis» (obscure—I’ve seen it once or twice meaning «deification» and only once, as far as I can recall, meaning what you intend. If nothing else, I guess you could impress your English-speaking friends with it.)

I’m looking for a word or phrase for:
Something that is not only the perfect/archetypal/quintessential example of a concept, but also unequivocally validates the existence of the concept via its very existence.

Ex: Phineas Gage is [___] of medical miracles.

I could achieve this in two separate sentences («Phineas Gage is the quintessential example of a medical miracle» and «Phineas Gage is unequivocal proof of the existence of medical miracles»), but I feel like there is a way authors communicate both via just one phrase.

I understand that these statements are redundant in the sense that saying «A is an example of B» is automatically proof of B, but I want to communicate the connotation more explicitly.

I think I’m close with the phrasing «ultimate testament to» but I would appreciate other suggestions.

Perhaps the word you are looking for is epitome defined according to Merriam-Webster as

a typical or ideal example : EMBODIMENT
the British monarchy itself is the epitome of tradition
—Richard Joseph

Merriam-Webster further states

Epitome Has Greek Roots

Epitome first appeared in print in the early 16th century, when it was used to mean «summary.» If someone asks you to summarize a long paper, you effectively cut it up, mentioning only the most important ideas, and the etymology of epitome reflects this process: it comes from Greek epitemnein, meaning «to cut short.» Your summary probably also presents all the key points of the original work, which may explain why epitome eventually came to be used for any person or object that is a clear or good example of an abstraction, as in «the epitome of grace» or «the epitome of health.»

Collins dictionary says:

If you say that a person or thing is the epitome of something, you are emphasizing that they are the best possible example of a particular type of person or thing.
[formal, emphasis]

exemplar

Phineas Gage is an exemplar of medical miracles.

exemplary

Phineas Gage is exemplary of medical miracles.

Both of these sentences indicate that Gage is an example. Furthermore, the word exemplar/exemplary bears connotations of being a particularly excellent example.

Since you’re open to a phrase, how about «the defining example»?

As in, this example is what defines this whole class of things.

So using your example:

Phineas Gage is the defining example of medical miracles.

living proof

living proof [phrase]: [usually ‘verb-link phrase‘, often ‘phrase that’_, ‘phrase of noun’]

If you say that someone is living proof of something, you mean that
their actions or personal qualities show that a particular fact is
true or that a particular quality exists.

He is living proof that some players just get better with age.

[Collins Cobuild Advanced Learner’s Dictionary]

living proof

If someone is living proof of a particular fact, they are a good
example of how true it is….

I will remember them as living proof that you can have too much of a good thing.

[Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English]

Though usually applied to persons (He / she / you … is / are living proof …), the usage is broadened to human institutions:

The stock exchange is living proof of that fact.

[Cambridge Dictionary; Hansard]

It is living proof that public services can be both efficient and popular.

[Hansard: National Health Service {50th Anniversary}]

Admittedly, there were zero hits in a Google search for «It is living proof» + «existence of dinosaurs»!

I would go for irrefutable evidence, especially if you want to use it for non-human objects, as you assert in a comment.

Note that evidence can also mean sign, or as AHD says:

Something indicative; an indication or set of indications:

saw no evidence of grief on the mourner’s face.

I doubt there is a word which covers both the aspects of the described situation. That being said, if X is a quintessential example of Y, doesn’t it follow naturally that X «unequivocally validates the existence of» Y?

This idiom seems to fit: a textbook case of (something)

A clear and characteristic instance or example of something.

Your honor, this is a textbook case of a conflict of interest. Every aspect of the deal points to that conclusion!

I would suggest considering manifestation. Even though the word carries a connotation of ‘demonstrating’ something, I think it fits the bill. For example, a sentence like Education is the manifestation of perfection that is already in man purports to show the existence of such a quality.

Here’s one definition of the word from the Cambridge dictionary

manifestation: A sign of something existing or happening:

She claimed that the rise in unemployment was just a further manifestation of the government’s incompetence.

And here is a definition of manifest:

manifest: to make evident or certain by showing or displaying

There is an idiom that originates from Latin, “quod erat demonstrandum“. It is often expressed with the abbreviate, “Q.E.D.”.

The phrase quod erat demonstrandum is a translation into Latin from the Greek ὅπερ ἔδει δεῖξαι (hoper edei deixai; abbreviated as ΟΕΔ). Translating from the Latin phrase into English yields «what was to be demonstrated». However, translating the Greek phrase ὅπερ ἔδει δεῖξαι can produce a slightly different meaning. In particular, since the verb «δείκνυμι» also means to show or to prove, a different translation from the Greek phrase would read «The very thing it was required to have shown.»

There is an idiom the originates from Latin, “A priori and a posteriori”, that also discusses this concept of being both example of something that is conceived in two different aspects of knowledge.

A posteriori, is a phrase which implies something understood from experience. It’s literal translation is «from the later», which is to explain that it is knowledge acquired from experience with the outside world. The knowledge is gained after experience.

A priori, is the knowledge or thought that precedes experience (before).

A priori knowledge is independent from current experience (e.g., as part of a new study). Examples include mathematics,[i] tautologies, and deduction from pure reason.”Source: Wikipedia

These are things that are pre-conceived to the event or experience. It incapsulates the product of creativity, and applying empirical knowledge to alternative scenarios that may be theoretical or simply not yet experienced.

A commonly used word is «linchpin». The proof of a proposition is embodied in it (because if it falls the proposition falls) and it embodies the proposition itself (by being a fundamental tenet of the proposition). This satisfies both «quintessential example» and «irrefutable proof».

one that serves to hold together parts or elements that exist or function as a unit

The phrase «proof positive of» seems close. It means that something demonstrates the existence of something else in a particularly striking and definitive way.

Edit: I was asked to provide citations. Here’s Merriam-Webster:

proof positive (noun):
something which definitely shows that something else is true or correct

Время Perfect в английском языке — это совершенное время, выражающее завершенные действия, результат которых непосредственно связан с данным моментом времени. Данные действия или завершили только что, или к наступлению определенного момента — все это Perfect Tenses.

С точки зрения русского языка действие в настоящем времени не может закончиться, на то оно и настоящее. Если действие завершилось, значит, время должно быть прошедшее. Английский язык придерживается другой логики: в нем действие в настоящем может быть законченным, и пример этому — Present Perfect. Также поступок мог быть совершен давно или вовсе никогда не совершен, но он имеет значение в настоящем времени.

Как образуется Present Perfect

Утверждение

Сказуемое в Present Perfect состоит из вспомогательного глагола have (has) и основного глагола. С местоимениями I, you, we, they и существительными во множественном числе используется have, с местоимениями he, she, it и существительными в единственном числе — has.

Основной глагол при формировании предложения в Present Perfect должен быть в третьей форме: к правильным глаголам добавляется окончание –ed, у неправильных глаголов может видоизменяться корень слова.

Формула: I/We/You/They + have + 3-я форма глагола
Примеры: I have started. — Я начал. We have gone. — Мы ушли. You have finished. — Вы закончили. They have come. — Они пришли.

Формула: He/She/It + has + 3-я форма глагол
Примеры: He has decided. — Он решил. She has done. — Она сделала. It has turned off. — Оно выключилось.

Отрицание

При построении отрицательного предложения в Present Perfect Tense между вспомогательным и основным глаголами ставится отрицательная частица not.

Формула: I/We/You/They + have not + 3-я форма глагола
Примеры: I have not started. — Я не начал. We have not gone. — Мы не ушли. You have not finished. — Вы не закончили. They have not come. — Они не пришли.

Формула: He/She/It + has not + 3-я форма глагола
Примеры: He has not decided. — Он не решил. She has not done. — Она не сделала.
It has not turned off. — Оно не выключилось.

В разговорной речи глагол to have (has) может принимать сокращенные формы. В утвердительном предложении have (has) объединяется с местоимением, в сокращенном виде have выглядит как «‘ve», has как «‘s». В отрицательном предложении have (has) объединяется с not, сокращенные формы выглядят как «haven’t» и «hasn’t».

Примеры: We’ve gone. He’s decided. I haven’t started. She hasn’t done.

Вопрос

Вопросительное предложение в Present Perfect в английском языке начинается с вспомогательного глагола, далее следует местоимение и основной глагол в третьей форме.

Формула: Have + I/we/you/they + 3-я форма глагола
Примеры: Have I started? — Я начал? Have we gone? — Мы ушли? Have you finished? — Вы закончили? Have they come? — Они пришли?

Формула: Has + he/she/it + 3-я форма глагола
Примеры: Has he decided? — Он решил? Has she done? — Она сделала? Has it turned off? — Оно выключилось?

Когда употребляется Present Perfect

Необходимо показать результат действия, которое уже совершилось. С помощью Present Perfect внимание акцентируется именно на результате.
Примеры: Я делал это. — I did it (Past Simple — действие было в прошлом).
Я сделал это. — I have done it (Present Perfect — действие закончилось, значит, есть результат).

Слова-маркеры: already (уже), just (только что), yet (уже, еще).
Present Perfect в английском языке используется, когда речь идет о личном опыте говорящего.
Пример: I’ve been to England but I haven’t been to Scotland. — Я был в Англии, но не был в Шотландии (на данный момент моей жизни я посетил Англию и не успел посетить Шотландию).

Для описания жизненного опыта характерно наличие наречий ever (когда-нибудь) и never (никогда).

I have never tried green tea. — Я никогда не пробовал зеленый чай.
С помощью Present Perfect показывается длительное действие, которое все еще актуально: оно началось в прошлом, у него есть результат в настоящем и, возможно, оно будет продолжаться в будущем.
Примеры:

We’ve known each other since school years. — Мы знаем друг друга со школы.

I’ve studied English for 5 years. — Я учу английский в течение 5 лет (начал в прошлом, 5 лет — результат в настоящем).

I’ve lived in the suburbs since childhood. — Я живу в пригороде с детства (я начал жить там в детстве и, как результат, живу в пригороде и сейчас).

Обычно в подобных случаях в предложении употребляются предлоги for (в течение) и since (с тех пор как, начиная с).

Как образуется Past Perfect

Past Perfect — прошедшее совершенное время в английском языке. Его особенность в том, что оно не используется в речи самостоятельно и обязательно привязывается к другому действию. Например, нужно сообщить о событии в прошлом, которое произошло ранее других упомянутых событий.

Утверждение

Сказуемое в Past Perfect состоит из двух частей: вспомогательного глагола had и третьей формы основного глагола.

Формула: I/He/She/It/We/You/They + had + 3-я форма глагола
Примеры: I had done. — Я сделал. He had seen. — Он увидел. She had found. — Она нашла. It had fallen. — Оно упало. We had learned. — Мы выучили. You had decided. — Вы решили. They had gone. — Они ушли.

Отрицание

Отрицательное предложение в Past Perfect Tense формируется путем употребления отрицательной частицы not между вспомогательным глаголом had и основным глаголом.

Формула: I/He/She/It/We/You/They + had not + 3-я форма глагола
Примеры: I had not done. — Я не сделал. He had not seen. — Он не увидел. She had not found. — Она не нашла. It had not fallen. — Оно не упало. We had not learned. — Мы не выучили. You had not decided. — Вы не решили. They had not gone. — Они не ушли.

В разговорной речи используются сокращенные формы: в утвердительном предложении had объединяется с местоимением, в отрицательном – с частицей not.

Примеры: I’d done. You’d decided. I hadn’t done. You hadn’t decided.

Вопрос

Вопросительное предложение в Past Perfect начинается со вспомогательного глагола had, за которым следует подлежащее и основной глагол.

Формула: Had + I/he/she/it/we/you/they + 3-я форма глагола
Примеры: Had I done? — Я сделал? Had he seen? — Он увидел? Had she found? — Она нашла? Had it fallen? — Оно упало? Had we learned? — Мы выучили? Had you decided? — Вы решили? Had they gone? — Они ушли?

Когда употребляется Past Perfect

Past Perfect Tense всегда идет рука об руку с другим действием в прошлом. Эта временная конструкция используется для описания действия, которое произошло раньше другого действия или определенного момента в прошлом. Другое действие в прошлом чаще всего обозначается Past Simple.
Пример: We arrived at the station at 7.30, but the train had left. — Мы прибыли на вокзал в 7:30, но поезд уже ушел (сначала поезд ушел — Past Perfect, потом мы прибыли на вокзал — Past Simple).

В подобном случае часто используются слова: by… (к какому-то времени/моменту), after (после того как), before (перед тем как, до того как), when (когда), earlier (раньше), first (сперва, сначала).
Past Perfect может объяснять причину: в предложении уточняется, что действие, выраженное Past Perfect, стало причиной того, что произошло другое действие.
Пример: He was hungry. He hadn’t eaten for eight hours. — Он был голоден. Он не ел восемь часов.
В Past Perfect также можно рассказывать о личном опыте, который дал некий результат в прошлом.
Пример: The last week of my holidays was the worst week I had ever had. — Последняя неделя моего отпуска была самой худшей неделей, которая у меня когда-либо была.

Как образуется Future Perfect

Future Perfect — будущее совершенное время в английском языке, оно показывает действие, которое начнется в будущем и закончится до определенного момента в будущем.

Утверждение

Утвердительное предложение в Future Perfect строится с помощью вспомогательного глагола have во времени Future Simple (will have) и третьей формы основного глагола.

Формула: I/He/She/It/We/You/They + will have + 3-я форма глагола
Примеры: I will have finished. — Я закончу. He will have decided. — Он решит. She will have painted. — Она нарисует. It will have produced. — Оно произведет. We will have arrived. — Мы прибудем. You will have confirmed. — Вы подтвердите. They will have received. — Они получат.

Отрицание

В отрицательном предложении между will и have появляется отрицательная частица not.

Формула: I/He/She/It/We/You/They + will not have + 3-я форма глагола
Примеры: I will not have finished. — Я не закончу. He will not have decided. — Он не решит. She will not have painted. — Она не нарисует. It will not have produced. — Оно не произведет. We will not have arrived. — Мы не прибудем. You will not have confirmed. — Вы не подтвердите. They will not have received. — Они не получат.

В разговорной речи вспомогательный глагол will have чаще встречается в сокращенной форме, в утвердительном предложении эта форма будет звучать как «‘ll have», в отрицательном — «won’t have».

Примеры: She’ll have painted. You’ll have confirmed. It won’t have produced. We won’t have arrived.

Вопрос

Вопросительное предложение в Present Perfect Tense формируется путем вынесения на первое место will, затем ставится подлежащее, после него have и далее 3-я форма основного глагола.

Формула: Will + I/he/she/it/we/you/they + have + 3-я форма глагола
Примеры: Will I have finished? — Я закончу? Will he have decided? — Он решит? Will she have painted? — Она нарисует? Will it have produced? — Оно произведет? Will we have arrived? — Мы прибудем? Will you have confirmed? — Вы подтвердите? Will they have received? — Они получат?

Употребление Future Perfect

Время Future Perfect показывает действие, которое начнется в будущем и также закончится до определенного момента в будущем.

Примеры:

I want to quit my job in a month. I will have worked for 5 years for this company by then. — Я хочу через месяц уволиться. К тому времени я проработаю в этой компании 5 лет.

We will have built our new house by the next year. — Мы достроим наш новый дом к следующему году.

В таких предложениях могут употребляться слова: by… (к какому-то времени/моменту), by the time (к тому времени как), by then (к тому времени), by tomorrow (к завтрашнему дню, до завтра), before (перед тем как), when (когда), until/till (до того как).

The way Reverse Dictionary works is pretty simple. It simply looks through tonnes of dictionary definitions and grabs the ones that most closely match your search query. For example, if you type something like «longing for a time in the past», then the engine will return «nostalgia». The engine has indexed several million definitions so far, and at this stage it’s starting to give consistently good results (though it may return weird results sometimes). It acts a lot like a thesaurus except that it allows you to search with a definition, rather than a single word. So in a sense, this tool is a «search engine for words», or a sentence to word converter.

I made this tool after working on Related Words which is a very similar tool, except it uses a bunch of algorithms and multiple databases to find similar words to a search query. That project is closer to a thesaurus in the sense that it returns synonyms for a word (or short phrase) query, but it also returns many broadly related words that aren’t included in thesauri. So this project, Reverse Dictionary, is meant to go hand-in-hand with Related Words to act as a word-finding and brainstorming toolset. For those interested, I also developed Describing Words which helps you find adjectives and interesting descriptors for things (e.g. waves, sunsets, trees, etc.).

In case you didn’t notice, you can click on words in the search results and you’ll be presented with the definition of that word (if available). The definitions are sourced from the famous and open-source WordNet database, so a huge thanks to the many contributors for creating such an awesome free resource.

Special thanks to the contributors of the open-source code that was used in this project: Elastic Search, @HubSpot, WordNet, and @mongodb.

Present Perfect — довольно сложное время английского языка для изучающих его. Однако, слова маркеры для Present Perfect часто идут вместе с глаголом have, поэтому с ними будет проще узнавать это время. В русском языке аналога конструкции Present Perfect нет, поэтому эта тема и вызывает наибольшие затруднения.

Те или иные маркеры всегда подчинены смыслу, который несет в себе предложение. Поэтому их лучше трактовать, фиксируя то, о чем говорится в нем. Рассмотрим подробнее на примерах.

Временные слова маркеры — since, for

1. Эти маркеры появляются в предложении, если начало какого-либо события было в прошлом, длится сейчас, и на данный момент виден его результат. Другими словами, маркеры показывают как долго происходило действие и фиксируют время события.

Since — с… (с какого момента длится действие).
For — в течение… (на каком протяжении времени).

Since my visit in Canada, little has changed. — С моего визита в Канаду мало что изменилось.
My car has been there for two week. – Мой автомобиль там уже две недели.

2. Ситуации, когда действие уже нельзя отменить. Например, когда мы знакомы с каким-либо человеком на протяжении нескольких лет.

Ann has known me since I was a teacher. — Анна знает меня с тех пор, как я был учителем.
He has known them for many years. — Он знает их на протяжении многих лет.

Слова маркеры Present Perfect текущего момента: just, already, so far, yet, before, by now, recently, lately

Событие произошло недавно (вот-вот только) и прошлым его еще нельзя назвать. Оно еще не стало нашим прошлым, поэтому мы практически говорим о моменте, который происходит сейчас, в данный момент.

Just — только что.
They have just finished cleaning the apartment. — Они только сейчас закончили уборку квартиры.
Already — уже.
He has already bought two apartments in this city. — Он уже купил две квартиры в этом городе.
So far — до сих пор (к настоящему моменту).
So far he has been lucky in sports. — Пока ему везло в спорте.
Yet — еще (употребляется в отрицательных или вопросительных предложениях).
I haven’t seen that picture yet. — Я еще не видел эту картину.
Before — раньше.
We haven’t seen this dog before. — Мы раньше не видели эту собаку.
By now — к настоящему времени.
I have read two books by now. — К этому времени я прочитал две книги.
Recently — недавно. My friend has recently discovered other lifestyle. — Мой друг недавно открыл для себя другой образ жизни.
