nuanced的词源解释,nuanced来源

nuanced(adj.)

"具有或展示色调等方面的细微渐变",1896年,来自动词 nuance(见该词条)的过去分词形容词。

The new co-operative history of English literature which the University of Cambridge is now publishing prints "genre" without italics. And it even permits one contributor—and a contributor who is discussing Shakespeare!—to say that something is delicately "nuanced." Is there now an English verb "to nuance"? It is terrible to think of the bad language the scholars of the venerable English university might have used if "nuanced" had been first discovered in the text of an American author. [Scribner's Magazine," January 1911]
剑桥大学现在出版的英国文学新合作历史将“genre”印刷为非斜体字。它甚至允许一位撰稿人——一位正在讨论莎士比亚的撰稿人!——说某些东西是精细的“nuanced”。现在是否有一个英语动词“to nuance”?如果“nuanced”是首次在美国作家的文本中被发现,那么这位古老的英国大学的学者们可能会使用多么糟糕的语言。[《斯克里布纳杂志》,1911年1月]
