obscure词源中文解释

约公元1400年，“黑暗的”，比喻意义为“道德上的无知；阴沉”，源自于12世纪的古法语 obscur， oscur “黑暗的，阴云密布的，灰暗，不清晰”，直接源自于拉丁语 obscurus “黑暗的，昏暗的，阴影的”，比喻意义为“未知的；难以理解的；难以辨别的；来自不重要的祖先”，源于 ob “在……之上”（参见 ob-)，加上 -scurus “覆盖的”，源于 PIE 词源 *(s)keu- “覆盖，遮盖”。相关词汇： Obscurely。

“不容易理解的，不显著或著名的，鲜为人知的”比喻意义最早可追溯至15世纪；意为“模糊的，没有清晰的形状或轮廓，几乎不可感知，因为缺乏光线而不易清晰地看到的”实义在英语中的使用可追溯至16世纪90年代。

In regard to the meaning of something said or written, obscure is general, being founded upon the figure of light which is insufficient to enable one to see with any clearness; this figure is still felt in all the uses of the word. [Century Dictionary, 1895]

关于所说或所写的某事的含义，《百科全书词典》（1895）认为， obscure 属于一般性词汇，基于光线不足以让人清晰地看到某物的比喻；这个比喻在该词汇的所有使用中仍然可感知到。

obscure词源英文解释

Adjective Middle English, "dark, unenlightened, incomprehensible," borrowed from Anglo-French & Latin; Anglo-French oscur, obscur "dark, dull, enigmatic," borrowed from Latin obscūrus "dim, dark, appearing faintly, imperfectly known, concealed from knowledge, incomprehensible," of uncertain origin Note: Latin obscūrus has traditionally been linked to a presumed Indo-European verbal base *skeu̯- "cover, conceal," and hence to an assortment of Germanic etyma, most formed with hypothesized root extensions of this base (compare shower >entry 1, sky >entry 1)—hence, J. Pokorny, Indogermanisches etymologisches Wörterbuch, p. 951, American Heritage Dictionary, Oxford Latin Dictionary, and the Oxford English Dictionary, third edition. However, etymological work of the last half-century has thrown doubt on the existence of such an etymon; in particular, the Sanskrit verb skunā́ti, glossed as "covers," has now been judged a late and isolated semantic development of a verb that meant "push, poke" in Vedic. The difficulty with any analysis of obscūrus that posits a meaning "cover" for -scūr- is that it makes little sense semantically compounded with the prefix and preposition ob(s)- "facing, in front of, toward/against" (compare ob oculōs "before one's eyes," obviam "in the way of"). It is not even certain that the word is correctly parsed as ob-scūrus, rather than obs-cūrus, as has been proposed by E. Hamp ("Some Italic and Celtic correspondences II," Zeitschrift für vergleichende Sprachforschung, 96. Band, 1. Heft [1982/83], pp. 98-99). While acknowledging this problem, M. de Vaan suggests a relationship with the bases of Latin scaevus "left-hand" and obscēnus, obscaenus "ill-omened" (see obscene), though he admits that supporting cognates in other Indo-European languages are lacking (Etymological Dictionary of Latin and the Other Italic Languages, Brill, 2008). Verb Middle English obscuren, borrowed from Anglo-French & Latin; Anglo-French obscurer, oscurir, borrowed from Latin obscūrāre "to darken, eclipse, dim, conceal from knowledge, make difficult to comprehend," verbal derivative of obscūrus "dim, dark, imperfectly known, concealed from knowledge, incomprehensible" — more at obscure >entry 1 Noun derivative of obscure >entry 1

The first known use of obscure was in the 15th century
