An interesting suggestion is that this word for a club used as a weapon comes from cant,the secret jargon of people such as thieves and beggars,and is related to the wordblood. We do know thatbludgeon is first recorded in a dictionary in 1730, while its first recorded use in running text (1755) is simple and to the point: “These villains . . . knocked him down with a bludgeon.”有一些词的词源不详,bludgeon 就是这样一个词。 一个很有意思的说法认为这个词作武器用棒解释时来源于黑话,是窃贼和乞丐们的秘密行话,与blood 这个词有关联。 然而我们确实知道bludgeou 首次收载于词典中是1730年, 而它第一次用于行文时意思简单明了(1755年):“这些恶棍…用短棒将他们击倒” |
