“海怪”据说于1755年时常出现在挪威海岸,源自挪威方言 krake(-n 是后缀表示定冠词),显然是 krake “杆,桩,柱”的特殊用法,也可以指“弯曲的树木,矮小的动物或人。”
The popular notion of the kraken dates back at least to the time of Pontoppidan (1698-1764), who wrote a description of it. One of the giant squids, as a cephalopod of the genus Architeuthis, might furnish a reasonable basis for the myth. [Century Dictionary]
“海怪”的普遍概念至少可以追溯到 Pontoppidan(1698-1764)时代,他曾对其进行描述。巨型乌贼,即属于 Architeuthis 属的头足类动物,可能为这个神话提供了合理的基础。[Century Dictionary]
