UMBRAGE in Context
“The last time the Hawkeyes played on a Nov. 16 was 2002. The opponent was Minnesota. You of the Hawkeye ilk may recall it. It clinched an unbeaten Big Ten season and share of the league championship for Iowa. It was kind of a big deal. So big, in fact, that Hawkeye fans ripped down the goal posts of the now-gone Metrodome, and actually tried to get them through a revolving door.... The next time an Iowa fan takes umbrage at a Gopher fan about anything, remember that afternoon in Minneapolis.” — Mike Hlas, The Gazette (Cedar Rapids, Iowa), 9 Aug. 2022
It can be difficult to converse with someone who is ready to take umbrage at the most innocent remarks.

Did You Know?
Umbrage is a word born in the shadows. Its ultimate source (and that of umbrella) is Latin umbra, meaning “shade, shadow,” and when it was first used in the 15th century it referred to exactly that. But figurative use followed relatively quickly. Shakespeare wrote of Hamlet that "his semblable is his mirror, and who else would trace him, his umbrage, nothing more,” and by the 17th century this meaning of “vague suggestion; hint,” had been joined by other uses, including the “feeling of resentment or offense” heard today in such sentences as “many took umbrage at the speaker’s tasteless jokes.” The word’s early literal use is not often encountered, though it does live on in literature: for example, in her 1849 novel, Charlotte Brontë describes how the titular Shirley would relax “at the foot of some tree of friendly umbrage.”
Umbrage 是一个在阴暗环境里诞生的词。 它的最终来源（以及umbrella的来源）是拉丁语 umbra，意思是“shade「阴影」，shadow「阴影」”，当它在 15 世纪首次使用时，就是指这个意思。 但是有象征性的意义使用相对较快。 莎士比亚在谈到哈姆雷特时写道：“his semblable is his mirror, and who else would trace him, his umbrage, nothing more,”，到了 17 世纪，“vague suggestion「含糊的暗示」；hint「暗示」”的含义已经有了其他用法，包括 今天听到的“many took umbrage at the speaker’s tasteless jokes「怨恨或冒犯的感觉」”如“many took umbrage at the speaker’s tasteless jokes「许多对演讲者的无味笑话感到愤怒的人」”之类的语句中。 这个词的早期“阴影”含义用法并不常见，尽管它确实存在于文学作品中：例如，在夏洛特勃朗特 1849 年的小说中，描述了有名无实的雪莉如何“在一些友好的树阴凉下”放松。
