The connection can be found in medieval physiology with its notion of the four humors (blood, bile, phlegm, and black bile).These four body fluids were thought to determine a person's temperament,or distinguishing mental and physical characteristics.Thus, if blood was the predominant humor, one had a ruddy face and a disposition marked by courage, hope, and a readiness to fall in love.Such a temperament was calledsanguine, the Middle English ancestor of our wordsanguine. The sources of the Middle English word were Old Frenchsanguin and Latin sanguineus, the source of the French word. Both the Old French and Latin words meant "bloody,” "blood-colored,”Old Frenchsanguin having the sense "sanguine in temperament" as well. Latinsanguineus in turn was derived from sanguīs, "blood,” just as English sanguinary is. The English adjectivesanguine, first recorded in Middle English before 1350, went on to refer simply to the cheerfulness and optimism that accompanied a sanguine temperament,no longer having any direct reference to medieval physiology.也许有人对sanguinary （“嗜血的”）和 sanguine （“愉快乐观的”）两词之间的联系感到不解。 这种联系可以追溯到中世纪生理学中四种体液的概念（多血质型、胆汁型、黏液型和抑郁型）。这四种体液被认为可决定人的性格，或者能区分出精神和肉体上的特征。因此，如果血液是最主要的体液，一个人就应有红润的脸庞和以勇敢、充满希望、易于陷入情网为特征的性情。这种性情被称为sanguine ， 也就是我们sanguine 一词的中世纪英语的原形。 中世纪英语中该词源于古法语sanguin 一词和拉丁文 sanguineus （法语词的来源）。 在古法语和拉丁文中，该词意思都是“流血的”、“血色的”，古法语sanguin 还含有“生性乐天派的”之意。 拉丁文的sanguineus 也是由 sanguis （“血的”）而来，正如英语中的 sanguinary 一词。 英语形容词sanguine 最初记载于1350年以前的中古英语中， 演化为仅指伴随乐天派性情而具有的愉快和乐观之义，与中世纪生理学没有直接联系〔bonhomie〕A pleasant and affable disposition; geniality.和蔼，友好：亲切和蔼的性情；友善〔ethos〕The disposition, character, or fundamental values peculiar to a specific person, people, culture, or movement:社会精神特质：一种特定的人、民族、文化或社会活动所特有的性情、气质、个性或基本的价值：〔understanding〕A disposition to appreciate or share the feelings and thoughts of others; sympathy.同情，了解：懂得或分享别人的感觉和思想的性情；同情〔jocund〕Sprightly and lighthearted in disposition, character, or quality.See Synonyms at jolly 欢乐的，愉快的：在性情、性格或特征上欢乐的和愉快的 参见 jolly〔outrageous〕Violent or unrestrained in temperament or behavior.残暴的：性情或行为狂暴或放纵的〔disposition〕"Her highly strung temperament made her uncertain . . . capricious . . . enchanting" (George Bernard Shaw). “她极易激动的个性使得她性情多变. . .反复无常. . .魅力无穷” （乔治·贝尔纳·萧伯纳）。〔mild〕Gentle or kind in disposition, manners, or behavior.温和的：性情、举止或行为文雅或善良的〔obedient〕"the natives . . . being . . . of an intelligent tractable disposition" (Samuel Butler).“性情聪明温顺的当地人” （塞缪尔·巴特勒）〔feisty〕Full of spirit or pluck; frisky or spunky.See Regional Note at feist 精力充沛的或活跃的；性情活泼的或精神蓬勃的 参见 feist〔detraction〕A derogatory or damaging comment on a person's character or reputation; disparagement:诽谤，毁誉：关于人的性情或名誉的贬抑性评论；毁谤：〔flexible〕a resilient temperament). 开朗的性情）。 〔amiable〕Good-natured suggests a tolerant, easygoing disposition; sometimes it also implies a docile nature: Good-natured 指性情宽厚，容易相处；有时也指性情温顺： 〔natured〕Having a nature or temperament of a specified kind.
