| 词汇 | browbeat |
| 词根词缀 | 词源： browbeat (v.) "to bully," originally "to bear down with stern or arrogant looks," 1581, from brow + beat (v.). "[I]t appears from the earliest quotations ... that the brow in question was that of the beater, not of the beaten party; but it is not evident whether the meaning was 'to beat with one's (frowning) brows,' or 'to beat (?lower) one's brows at." [OED] Browbeating is attested from 1581. |
