calamity词源中文解释

15世纪早期,“损害,逆境状态”; 1550年代,“巨大的不幸或痛苦的原因”,源自14世纪的古法语 calamite,源自拉丁语 calamitatem(主格 calamitas)“损害,损失,失败; 灾难,不幸,逆境”,这是一个起源不明的词。

早期的词源学家将其与 calamus “稻草”(见 shawm)联系起来,认为这是对庄稼损害的描述,但这似乎是民间词源学。也许它来自一个失落的词根,也保存在 incolumis “未受伤”的词中,来自 PIE *kle-mo-,来自 *kel- “打,割”(见 holt)。Calamity Jane 是美国前沿女性、侦察员和民间英雄玛莎·简·卡纳里(约1852-1903)的绰号(1876年有记录)。
