flamen 的詞源
flamen(n.)
"古羅馬祭司",1530年代,源自拉丁語 flamen "一位神的祭司",其起源不明,可能來自 PIE 詞根 *bhlad- "崇拜"(源自哥特語 blotan,古英語 blotan "獻祭")。早在14世紀初,仿效蒙茅斯的傑弗裏,也用於指古代基督教前的英國祭司。相關: Flamineous。
The old connection of flamen with Skt. brahman- is highly problematic, and has been dismissed by Schrijver. As WH surmise, the ending -en points to an archaism, probably a n[euter] noun "sacrificial act" which changed its semantics to 'priest'; for a similar shift, cf. augur "bird-observer" .... The only viable comparanda are found in [Germanic], but they show root-final (or suffixal) *-d~. [de Vaan]
flamen 與梵文 brahman- 的舊聯繫存在很大問題,並已被 Schrijver 駁回。正如 WH 所猜測的那樣,結尾 -en 指向一種古語,可能是一箇中性名詞“祭祀行爲”,其語義轉變爲“祭司”; 對於類似的轉變,參見 augur “觀鳥者”....唯一可行的比較對象在[日耳曼語系]中發現,但它們顯示出根詞末尾(或後綴)*-d~。[de Vaan]
