Did You Know?

Opprobrium was borrowed into English from Latin in the 17th century. It derives from the Latin verb opprobrare, which means "to reproach." That verb, in turn, came from the noun probrum, meaning "disgraceful act" or "reproach." The adjective form of opprobrium is opprobrious, which in English means "scurrilous" or "infamous." One might commit an "opprobrious crime" or be berated with "opprobrious language," for example. Probrum gave English another word too, but you might have a little trouble guessing it. It is exprobrate, an archaic synonym of censure and upbraid

Opprobrium 是从17世纪的拉丁借用到英语中的,它是源于拉丁动词opprobrare,含义是“to reproach「责备;谴责」” 这个动词,则来自于名词 probrum,意思是“disgraceful act「不友好的动作」 ” or “reproach「谴责;批评」”形容词 opprobrium的名词形式是 opprobrious,意思是 “scurrilous「辱骂的」” 或 “infamous「恶名昭彰」” 一个犯下令人生厌的罪行或是指受到厉声谴责的人。例如:Probrum使英语又增加了另外的单词,你可能很难猜到它是谁。这个词是expropriate,从前是censure 和 upbraid的同义词。
