Limburger(n.)
1870年,一种臭味浓郁的著名奶酪,简称 Limburger cheese(1817年),来自比利时东北部的 Limburg 省,那里制作这种奶酪。该地名来自日耳曼语 *lindo “椴树”(见 linden)和 *burg “堡垒”。
Some frauds a few years ago started a Limburger cheese factory down in Keyport, New Jersey, but the imposition was soon exposed. A man could come within 300 yards of the spurious article without being knocked down, and as the smell never had any effect on the town clock the business was soon discontinued. [John E. Boyd, "The Berkeley Heroine and Others Stories," 1899]
几年前,一些骗子在新泽西州的基普特开设了一个林堡奶酪工厂,但很快就被揭穿了。一个人可以在距离这种假货300码的地方,而不被击倒,而且这种气味从来没有对城镇钟表产生任何影响,因此这项业务很快就被停止了。[约翰·E·博伊德,“伯克利女英雄和其他故事”,1899年]
