单词 | 黑话 |
释义 | 〔patois〕The special jargon of a group; cant.See Synonyms at dialect 行语,同行语:某一团体的特殊术语;黑话 参见 dialect〔bludgeon〕The origin of some words is simply not known,andbludgeon is one such word. An interesting suggestion is that this word for a club used as a weapon comes from cant,the secret jargon of people such as thieves and beggars,and is related to the wordblood. We do know thatbludgeon is first recorded in a dictionary in 1730, while its first recorded use in running text (1755) is simple and to the point: "These villains . . . knocked him down with a bludgeon.”有一些词的词源不详,bludgeon 就是这样一个词。 一个很有意思的说法认为这个词作武器用棒解释时来源于黑话,是窃贼和乞丐们的秘密行话,与blood 这个词有关联。 然而我们确实知道bludgeou 首次收载于词典中是1730年, 而它第一次用于行文时意思简单明了(1755年):“这些恶棍…用短棒将他们击倒”〔cant〕The special vocabulary peculiar to the members of an underworld group; argot.黑话:下层社会成员所用的特殊词汇;隐语〔argot〕thieves' argot.See Synonyms at dialect 盗贼的黑话 参见 dialect〔patter〕The jargon of a particular group; cant.黑话,行话:某一特殊团体的行话;黑话 |
