Skt. nagna, Hittite nekumant-, L. nudus, Lith. nuogas, O.C.S. nagu-, O.Ir. nocht, Welsh noeth). Applied to qualities, actions, etc., from late 14c. (first in "The Cloud of Unknowing"); phrase naked truth is from 1585, in Alexander Montgomerie's "The Cherry and the Slae"). Which thou must (though it grieve thee) grant I trumped never a man. But truely told the naked trueth, To men that meld with mee, For neither rigour, nor for rueth, But onely loath to lie. [Montgomerie, 1585] Phrase naked as a jaybird (1943) was earlier naked as a robin (1879, in a Shropshire context); the earliest comparative was naked as a needle (late 14c.). 词根记忆： a. 裸体的,无遮敝的,无掩饰的The cake maker shakes a naked snake with the quaking rake without sake.蛋糕制造者无缘无故地用抖动的耙子摇一条赤裸的蛇. |
