中英词源
muse 缪斯女神,智慧女神,灵感,沉思
来自希腊语Mousa,缪斯女神,来自PIE*men,思考,思索,词源同mind,mentor.引申词义灵感,沉思。也有观点认为其沉思义来自拉丁语musum,鼻子,词源同muzzle,原指狗把鼻子在空气中嗅,讽刺人装模作样,假装思考,游荡,若有所思。
- muse (v.)
- "to reflect, to be absorbed in thought," mid-14c., from Old French muser (12c.) "to ponder, dream, wonder; loiter, waste time," literally "to stand with one"s nose in the air" (or, possibly, "to sniff about" like a dog who has lost the scent), from muse "muzzle," from Gallo-Roman *musa "snout," of unknown origin. Probably influenced in sense by muse (n.). Related: Mused; musing.
- muse (n.)
- late 14c., protectors of the arts, from Old French Muse and directly from Latin Musa, from Greek Mousa, "the Muse," also "music, song," from PIE root *men- "to think, remember" (see mind (n.)). Meaning "inspiring goddess of a particular poet" is from late 14c. The traditional names and specialties of the nine Muses, daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne, are: Calliope (epic poetry), Clio (history), Erato (love poetry, lyric art), Euterpe (music, especially flute), Melpomene (tragedy), Polymnia (hymns), Terpsichore (dance), Thalia (comedy), Urania (astronomy).
