the use or language of sarcasm
1570年代, sarcasmus,“尖刻的嘲讽或讥讽,讽刺的话或表达”,源自晚期拉丁语 sarcasmus,来自晚期希腊语 sarkasmos,“嘲笑,戏谑,讥讽,嘲弄”,来自 sarkazein,“说话刻薄,嘲笑”,字面意思是“剥去肉”(像狗一样),来自 sarx(属格 sarkos)“肉”,本意是“一块肉”(参见 sarco-)。英语单词的现代形式来自1610年代。“现在通常指:讽刺的语言; 讽刺的意义或目的”[OED]。另见 humor(名词)。
The essential thing about sarcasm is its cutting edge ; it therefore is intensely concentrated, lying in a sentence or a phrase ; it is used to scourge the follies or foibles or vices of men, but has little of reformatory purpose. Satire is more elaborate than sarcasm, is not necessarily bitter, and has, presumably, some aim at the reformation of that which is satirized. [Century Dictionary]
sarcasm 的本质在于其尖锐的切割边缘; 因此它非常集中,存在于一个句子或短语中; 它用于抨击人们的愚蠢、缺点或恶习,但几乎没有改革的目的。Satire 比 sarcasm 更为复杂,不一定是苦涩的,而且据说有一些目的是改革被讽刺的东西。[世纪词典]
earlier sarcasmus, borrowed from Middle French or Late Latin; Middle French sarcasme, borrowed from Late Latin sarcasmos "mockery," borrowed from Late Greek sarkasmós, from Greek sarkázein "to jeer at while biting the lips" (in galen; perhaps, if the original sense was "to bite or strip off flesh," derivative of sark-, sárx "flesh") + -smos, suffix of verbal action — more at sarco- Note: The original sense of the Greek verb sarkázein is conjectural, as all instances referring to jeering or mockery come from late or post-classical sources, generally lexica. The sole significant early uses are in Aristophanes' play Peace, where the Megarians, while pulling boulders from the entrance to a cave, are described as performing the action of the verb sarkázein "like mean (?) curs," while perishing from hunger ("hoi Megarês … hélkousin d' hómōs glischrótata sarkázontes hṓsper kynídia"); and in the Hippocratic treatise "On Joints" (Perì Arthrôn), where the verb is used to describe hoofed animals eating grass. In both cases the interpretation of sarkázein is far from transparent.
The first known use of sarcasm was in 1619
