    swarthy 皮肤黑的

    来自 swart,黑黝黝的,-y,形容词后缀。用以形容皮肤黑的。

    swarthy
    swarthy: [16] Old English sweart meant ‘black’. It came from a prehistoric Germanic *swartaz, which also produced German schwarz, Dutch zwart, Swedish svart, and Danish sort, and may go back ultimately to the same Indo-European base as gave Latin sordidus ‘dirty’ (source of English sordid [16]). It survives, just, in modern English as swart ‘dark, black’. From this in the 16th century was derived the now defunct swarty, of which swarthy is an unexplained variant.
    => sordid
    swarthy (adj.)
    "dark-colored," especially of skin, 1580s, unexplained alteration of swarty (1570s), from swart + -y (2). Related: Swarthiness.
