palaver词源中文解释

1733年(隐含于 palavering 中),“长时间的谈话,会议,乏味的讨论”,是水手的俚语,源自葡萄牙语 palavra “单词,言语,谈话”,源自拉丁语 parabola 的音位转换,“演讲,讨论”,源自拉丁语 parabola “比较”(见 parable)。是 parole 的同源词。

在西非,葡萄牙语单词成为贸易商与当地居民“谈判”的术语,显然英语从那里学到了这个词。(西班牙语同源词 palabra 出现在16世纪至17世纪的英语短语中。)“空洞的废话”这个意思记录于1748年。动词“沉迷于废话”于1733年出现,源自名词。相关词: Palavering。
