creature词源中文解释

约于1300年,“任何被创造的东西”,因此通常指“生物”,无论是有生命的还是没有生命的,但最常见的是“有生命的生物”,源自古法语 creature “被创造的生物; 所有被创造的东西”(现代法语 créature),源自晚期拉丁语 creatura “被创造的东西; 创造; 生物”,源自拉丁语 creare 的过去分词 creatus “制造,产生,生育”,源自 PIE 词根 *ker-(2)“生长”。

在有限的情况下,用于人类,表示轻蔑、同情或亲昵。指“欠他人晋升和财富的人”来源于1580年代。指“任何满足人类舒适需求的东西”(1610年代)源自提摩太前书 iv.4(“上帝所造的一切都是好的”),并导致了 creature 作为“威士忌,酒精饮料”的幽默用法(1630年代)。Creature-comforts “物质舒适”(食物、衣服)源自1650年代。相关词汇: Creatural; creaturely.
