uxorial（adj.）
"关于妻子的"，1778年，源自拉丁语 uxoris（参见 uxorious）+ -al（1）。有时被用于 uxorius 的意义。
We still say that a husband hangs out the broom when his wife goes from home for a short time; and on such occasions a broom besom has been exhibited as a signal that the house was freed from uxorial restraint, and where the master might be considered as a temporary bachelor. [Samuel Johnson and George Steevens, notes to "The Tempest," 1778]
我们仍然说，当妻子短暂离家时，丈夫 hangs out the broom; 在这种情况下，一把 broom 扫帚被展示为一个信号，表明房子已经摆脱了妻子的约束，主人可以被视为临时单身汉。[塞缪尔·约翰逊和乔治·斯蒂文斯，《暴风雨》注释，1778年]
