单词 | 蠢笨 |
释义 | 〔dipshit〕Foolish or contemptible.蠢笨的:笨的或被瞧不起的〔hoyden〕probably from Dutch heiden [heathen, boor] 可能源自 荷兰语 heiden [异教徒,蠢笨的人] 〔mutt〕Clipping not of sheep but of a word having to do with sheep has given us our termmutt for a mongrel dog. Clipping or abbreviating words, a standard process of word formation,shearedmutt from muttonhead, a pejorative term meaning "a stupid person,”based on the notion that sheep are stupid.Mutt in its first recorded use in 1901 is used in the same senses asmuttonhead, but it is soon recorded (1904)as a term of contempt for a horseand then (1906) for a dog.We can be reasonably certain that theNew Yorker critic writing in 1970 that "The cast includes a Sheepdog . . . a Mutt Bitch,” had no awareness that a sheepdog would make the ideal mutt.不是对绵羊的修剪而是对与绵羊有关的一个词进行省略呈现给我们的专门名词mutt 指杂种狗。 简略或缩写单词,一项规范的造词过程,将mutt 从 muttonhead 缩略而得, 这个含贬义的词意为“笨蛋”,源于绵羊是蠢笨的说法。Mutt 最早记载于1901年, 被用作muttonhead 的同义词, 但不久(1904年)的记载中,该词表示对马的蔑称,然后(1906年)成为对狗的蔑称。我们有理由肯定1970年的New Yorker 一本批判性作品, 其评注“包括牧羊狗…狗杂种”就没有意识到牧羊狗也可以表示十足的狗杂种之意〔loutish〕Having the characteristics of a lout; awkward, stupid, and boorish.蠢笨的,乡下气的,粗鲁的:具有粗鄙者特点的;笨拙的,愚蠢的,乡下人的〔dingleberry〕An incompetent, foolish, or stupid person.蠢蛋:无能、蠢笨的人〔splay〕Clumsy or clumsily formed; awkward.样子难看的或笨拙的;蠢笨的〔idiotic〕Showing foolishness or stupidity.愚蠢的:表现愚蠢或蠢笨的〔farcical〕Ridiculously clumsy; absurd.可笑地愚蠢的;蠢笨的〔mindless〕Lacking intelligence or good sense; foolish.愚蠢的,无知的:缺乏智慧或良知的;蠢笨的〔stupid〕Lacking or marked by a lack of intelligence.蠢笨的:缺少智力的或有其特征的 |
