The meaning offunky seems well captured by Geneva Smitherman in Talkin and Testifyin: The Language of Black America, where she states that funky means “[related to] the blue notes or blue mood created in jazz, blues, and soul music generally, down-to-earth soulfully expressed sounds; by extension [related to] the real nitty-gritty or fundamental essence of life, soul to the max.”Be that as it may,funky is first recorded in 1784 in a reference to musty, old, moldy cheese. Funky then developed the sense "smelling strong or bad,” which could be used to describe body odor.Butfunky was applied to jazz, too—a usage explained in 1959 by one F. Newton inJazz Scene : "Critics are on the search for something a little more like the old, original, passion-laden blues: the trade-name which has been suggested for it is ‘funky’(literally: ‘smelly,’ i.e. symbolizing the return from the upper atmosphere to the physical, down-to-earth reality).” Funky comes from the earlier nounfunk, which meant "a strong smell or stink.” This noun can probably be traced back to the Latin wordfūmus, "smoke.” 当被问及英语中最难准确定义的是哪些词时,词典编纂者肯定会提到funky 这个词。 Funky 的含义似乎被热纳瓦·史密斯曼在 语言和证明: 美国黑人语言一节中解释得很清楚,她认为 funky 指“主要在爵士乐、布鲁斯歌曲、灵乐这些发自灵魂深处的音乐中创造出的音符式的忧郁; 由此延伸为与生命本质精髓有关的,表现美国黑人及其文化特点到极致的。”Funky 最早可能被记录于1784年,用于指发霉的、过期的奶酪。 后来,funky 引申到这层意思“闻起来强烈或有异味的,” 可以用来形容身体的气味。但funky 也用于指爵士乐方面, 这种用法于1959年在一位名叫F·牛顿的人的书爵士舞台 中有所解释: “批评家们正在找一种有些更象原始的、激情洋溢的老布鲁斯歌曲一样的东西:用来表现后的词就是‘有气息的’(字面意义:‘有气味的,’也就是说,从高高在上的格调降回到自然而率直的风格)。” Funky 一词来自较早出现的名词funk, 意为“一种刺鼻的气味或臭味”。 这个词可能可追溯到拉丁词fumus, “烟” 〔Bantu〕From Proto-Bantu *bantu [people] 源自 原始班图语 *bantu [人] 〔fish〕Any of various primitive aquatic vertebrates of the class Cyclostomata, lacking jaws and including the lampreys and hagfishes.鳗类,鳗:无颚的各种原始水生圆口纲脊椎动物中的一种,包括七鳃鳗和盲鳗〔primal〕Being first in time; original; primeval.最初的,原始的;远古的〔caveman〕A prehistoric or primitive human living in caves.穴居人:史前或原始的居于洞中的人类〔progestin〕A crude hormone of the corpus luteum from which progesterone can be isolated in pure form.

If Dr. Brett had been talking about hunting for gold on the moon,there would be a solid connection between his use of the expressionpan out and its original use in gold mining. Pan out, like the verb pan itself, comes from the noun pan in the sense "a shallow circular metal vessel used in washing gold from gravel.”The expressionpan out was used in a variety of senses, including "to wash gold-bearing earth in a pan"; "to obtain gold by washing ore in a miner's pan";and with reference to a mine or mineral-bearing soil, "to produce gold or minerals.”From such literal usagespan out was transferred to other situations. In Frederick Whymper'sTravel and Adventure in the Territory of Alaska, published in 1868, we are told that “‘It panned out well’ means that ‘it gave good returns.’”All these uses occurred first in American English,making the expression a true Americanism.“可是布莱特博士告诫说来自月球的听起来令人激动的消息并不总会在实验室获得成功”(伦敦每日电讯报 1972年12月14日)。 如果布莱特博士谈论的是关于在月球上寻找金子,那么,在他表达panout 这个用法和这个短语在金矿开采方面的原始用法就会有一种固定的联系。 Pan out 象动词 pan 本身一样来源于名词 pan , 意思是“一个浅而且圆的金属器皿,用来从矿砂中淘洗金子”。pan out 的表达用在各种意思中, 包括“在淘金盘中淘洗含金的泥土”,“在矿工的淘金盘里淘洗矿砂得到金子”,并且与矿井或含矿土壤有关,“产金子或矿物”。在这样的文学用法中,pan out 被借用于其它情况。 在弗雷德里克·怀姆坡1868年出版的在阿拉斯加旅游历险 中, 我们得知"It panned at well"意思是“得到好的回报”。所有这些用法都首先出现在美国英语中,表达了一种真正的美国主义〔caribou〕from Proto-Algonquin *mekālixpowa 源自 原始阿尔贡金语 *mekālixpowa 〔savage〕Not civilized; barbaric:原始的:未开化的;野蛮的:〔qualitative〕Middle English [producing a primary quality] 中古英语 [产生一种原始的特性] 〔primeval〕Belonging to the first or earliest age or ages; original or ancient:原始的,早期的:属于最初的或最早的年代的;原先的或远古的: |
