15世纪中期,“不自然的形成,偏离自然秩序,丑陋”,是早期 monstruous(14世纪晚期)的变体,源自古法语 monstruos, monstrueuse,直接源自拉丁语 monstruosus “奇怪的,不自然的,怪异的”,源自拉丁语 monstrum “神圣的预兆,征兆,标志; 异常的形状; 怪物,畸形”,比喻为“令人厌恶的性格,可怕的对象,可怕的行为,可憎的事物”,源自 monere “警告,警告,建议”的词根,源自 PIE *moneie- “使人想起,提醒”,是 *men-(1)“思考”的被动形式。
“巨大的,庞大的”意思来自于大约1500年; “极其错误,令人震惊,可怕”的意思来自于1570年代。早期的形式 monstruous 仍然“在16世纪非常普遍”[OED]。自大约1600年起成为副词,但到19世纪末被认为是粗俗或口语。相关: Monstrously; monstrousness。
The first known use of monstrous was in the 15th century
