            - realm
- realm: [13] Realm., régime, and regimen are ultimately the same word. All three come from Latin regimen ‘system of government’, a derivative of the verb regere ‘rule’ (from which English gets rector, regent, register, etc). This passed into Old French, where reiel ‘royal’ was grafted into it, producing realme – whence English realm.
 => rector, regal, régime, regimen, register, royal
- realm (n.)
- late 13c., "kingdom," from Old French reaume, probably from roiaume "kingdom," altered (by influence of Latin regalis "regal") from Gallo-Roman *regiminem, accusative form of Latin regimen "system of government, rule" (see regimen). Transferred sense "sphere of activity" is from late 14c.
                 - 1. This is a target which is surely within the realm of possibility. 
- 这是一个完全有可能实现的目标。
