deplorable

參見：déplorable

英语

词源

原始印歐語詞
*de

形容词借自法語 déplorable (“可悲的”)，或源自其词源晚期拉丁語 dēplōrābilis + 英語 -able (“能够...的”)。^[1]其中Dēplōrābilis派生自拉丁語 dēplōrō (“抱怨；痛惜，悲痛”)^[2] + -ābilis (“能够...的，应受...的”)，而dēplōrō源自dē- (程度增强前缀) + plōrō (“喊出；抱怨；悲痛”)（可能源自原始印歐語 *pleh₃(w)- (“流；游泳”)）。

名词派生自形容词。^[2]美国政治相关义项指的是美国政客及民主党人希拉里·克林顿（1947年生）在2016年美国总统选举期间的一次讲话中说，她的对手共和党人唐纳德·特朗普（1946年生）的支持者是“basket of deplorables”（一群可悲的人）。^[3]

  If, however, the early symptoms of insanity be neglected till the brain becomes accustomed to the irregular actions of disease, or till organic changes take place from the early violence of those actions, then the case becomes hopeless of cure.
