neologism 的词源

"新词或表达"的意义始于1803年。Neological "以新词或短语为特征"的用法始于1754年。相关词：Neologically。

"New words are well-earned riches. When a nation enlarges its stock of knowledge, and acquires new ideas, it must necessarily have a suitable vesture for them." [Attributed to Samuel Johnson in "A German traveller's account of his interview with Dr. Johnson," published 1800 from a letter said to be dated 1768]

"新词是来之不易的财富。当一个国家扩大其知识储备，并获得新思想时，它必然需要适合这些思想的表达形式。" [归 attributed to Samuel Johnson in "A German traveller's account of his interview with Dr. Johnson," published 1800 from a letter said to be dated 1768]
