anachronistic 的词源

“在日期上错误，涉及时代错位”，1775年；参见 anachronism + -istic。

We have synchronism and synchronous ; and what scholar has not desiderated a manageable adjective to match anachronism? Anachronistic, obviously, will hardly do, except for holiday wear ; and the chances of anachronic, which was patronized by William Taylor and Coleridge, are frustrated by chronic and its inevitable associations. [Fitzedward Hall, "Modern English," 1873]

我们有 synchronism 和 synchronous；那么，哪个学者没有渴望找到一个合适的形容词来匹配 anachronism 呢？显然，Anachronistic 除非用于节日场合，否则很难奏效；而 anachronic 的机会，虽然得到了威廉·泰勒和柯尔律治的支持，却被 chronic 及其不可避免的联想所挫败。[菲茨爱德华·霍尔，《现代英语》，1873年]
