horned 的词源
horned(adj.)
“配有角或角的”,古英语 hyrned,源自 horn(名词)。现代词汇可能是在中英语中重新构造的。从14世纪晚期开始,特别是指摩西,以及他从西奈山下来的时候,头上出现的类似角的光辉光线,这些光线象征着权力。从1620年代起,也用来指代被戴绿帽子的人。Horned toad(角蜥)这个词出现在1766年;horned question(角问题)意指“困境”,出现于1540年代。
The HORNED TOAD is frightful ; his head half the size of his body ; his jaws open enormously ; his eye lids have the form of a pointed cone, which makes them seem armed with horns, wherein are his eyes. His feet have something the air of hands. [Francis Fitzgerald, "The General Genteel Preceptor," 1747]
角蜥真是可怕;它的头大约是身体的一半;它的下颌张得很大;眼睑呈尖锥形,看起来像是被角武装了一样,眼睛就在里面。它的脚看起来有点像手。[弗朗西斯·菲茨杰拉德,《通用绅士指导书》,1747年]
