As more than one of the curious has discovered,the origins are rather opaque.The most likely possibility is thatHoosier is an alteration of hoozer, an English dialect word recorded in Cumberland,a former county of northwest England, in the late 19th century and used to refer to anything unusually large.The transition betweenhoozer and Hoosier is not clear. The first recorded instance ofHoosier meaning "Indiana resident" is dated 1826; however, it seems possible that senses of the word recorded later in theDictionary of Americanisms, including "a big, burly, uncouth specimen or individual; a frontiersman, countryman, rustic,”reflect the kind of use this word had before it settled down in Indiana.随着印第安纳州篮球的名声越来越响,也许很多人对Hoosier, 印第安纳州人或定居者的别称这个词的来源感到好奇。 正如若干好奇者所发现的那样,其来源非常隐晦。最大的可能性是Hoosier 是 hoozer 的变体, 这是记录于坎伯兰的英格兰方言,19世纪后期英格兰西北部以前的一个郡,用来指特别巨大的东西。Hoozer 和 Hoosier 之间的过渡并不清楚。 意思是“印第安那州居住者”的Hoosier 的首次记载是在1826年; 但是可能该词的解释后来收录于美国俗语词典 中, 包括“一个庞大的、粗壮的、野蛮的种类或个体;拓荒者,乡巴佬,庄稼人,”可能反映了它在落户印第安那之前所有的用法〔proboscidian〕A mammal of the order Proboscidea, such as the elephant or its extinct relatives, having a long trunk, large tusks, and a massive body.长鼻目:一种长鼻目哺乳动物,如象或已灭绝的与其有亲源关系的种,有长象鼻、大牙和庞大的身躯〔mondo〕Enormous; huge:庞大的;巨大的:〔shake〕"All of a sudden there came into being a vast conservative infrastructure: think-tanks . . . and more foundations than you could shake a stick at"(National Review)“突然出现了一个庞大的保守的行政机构;智囊团…及名目繁多的基金会”(国内评论) |
