doodlebug<注释>One might wonder what, if any, connection exists among
Yankee Doodle, a
doodlebug, and the
doodle that one draws when one is bored or abstracted. The word
doodle in the latter two uses may come from a Low German word meaning .fool...Fool,. the first (and now probably obsolete) sense of the word
doodle to be recorded in English ('28),would seem naturally to have been used in
Yankee Doodle, the name of a tune composed in 755 to mock the American colonists. However, the origin of
Doodle in this expression is unknown; it may be from
tootle, because the piece was apparently composed originally for flute or fife.In the case of
doodlebug, it is thought that
doodle, meaning .simpleton,. is the first part of the insect name.The sense .absent-minded scrawl. may come directly from the sense .fool.or from a British dialectal verb, meaning .to cheat, fritter time away,.that was derived from the noun sense .fool..人们也许会问
YonkeeDoodle, doodlebug, 和意思为心不在焉地乱涂的
doodle 之间有无联系。 单词
doodle 在后两种用法中大概来自低地德语中, 意思为.傻瓜.的一个单词。.傻瓜.,
doodle 的第一含义(现在可能已不再用), 英文记载是在'28年,被用在755年谱成的用来讽刺美国殖民者的曲子
YankeeDoodle 中。 然而,在该表达中
Doodle 的词源尚不清楚; 也许来自
tootle, 因为该曲原本很明显是用笛子或横笛演奏的。在
doodlebug 中,
doodle 被认为意思为.傻瓜., 是昆虫名的第一部分。.心不在焉地乱涂.可能直接来自.傻瓜.,或者来自英国方言动词,意为.欺骗,打发时间.的,这个动词来源于名词.傻瓜.注释>
