reptile词源中文解释

14世纪晚期,“爬行或爬行的动物; 用小短腿在地上爬行的动物”,源自早期的法语 reptile(14世纪初)和直接源自拉丁语 reptile,是 reptilis(形容词)的名词用法,意为“爬行,爬行”,源自 repere 的过去分词词干 rept-,意为“爬行,爬行”。这被重建为来自 PIE 词根 *rep- “爬行,爬行”(源也包括立陶宛语 rėplioti “爬行”)。

从1749年开始,用于描述卑鄙、卑贱或卑微的人。作为形容词,大约在1600年,“爬行或爬行的”,因此,用于人,“低贱,卑鄙”(1650年代)。有时也用于18世纪的爬行植物。

名词的精确科学意义开始于18世纪中期,但这个词最初也用于现在被称为 amphibians 的动物,包括蟾蜍、青蛙、蝾螈。Reptilia(1835年作为一个独立的类)和 Amphibia 的分离发生在19世纪初; 流行使用滞后,而 reptile 仍然在18世纪晚期被用来表示“爬行在许多脚上的动物”[约翰逊,他称蝎子为爬行动物],有时排除蛇。古英语中“爬行动物”的词是 slincend,与 slink 有关。

And the terrestrial animals may be divided into quadrupeds or beasts, reptiles, which have many feet, and serpents, which have no feet at all. [Locke, "Elements of Natural Philosophy," 1689]
陆地动物可以分为四足动物或兽类、爬行动物,它们有许多脚,以及没有脚的蛇。[洛克,“自然哲学元素”,1689年]
An inadvertent step may crush the snail
That crawls at ev'ning in the public path ;
But he that has humanity, forewarn'd,
Will tread aside, and let the reptile live.
[Cowper, "The Task," 1785]
一个无意的脚步可能会压碎蜗牛
在公共路径上爬行的蜗牛;
但是有人性的人,会提前警告,
会踩到一边,让爬行动物活下来。
[考珀,“任务”,1785年]
