hay fever 的詞源
hay fever(n.)
"also hay-fever,1825年,由 hay 和 fever 組成。在1828年以前也稱爲 summer catarrh; 在1820年代之前不太引人注目,有時被嘲笑爲疾病中的“時髦”現象。"
People are apt to sneeze, in hot weather for example; and people do not die of sneezing now-a-days, as they did in days that no one knows any thing about. We cannot give six draughts a-day, at one and nine pence each, for sneezing: call it the hay-fever. What a wonderful man! what a clever man! he understands the hay-fever: call him in! Thus is the hay-fever among the last in the list of fashionables. ["On Fashions in Physic," London Magazine, October 1825]
"人們在炎熱的天氣裏打噴嚏; 而如今,人們不會因打噴嚏而死亡,而那些已被人們遺忘的日子裏卻會。我們不能爲打噴嚏每天花費6便士買一份藥水,稱之爲“枯草熱”。 這樣的稀奇古怪之人! 多麼聰明的人!他懂得“枯草熱”:立刻把他叫過來! " 因此,“枯草熱”是時髦疾病列表中的最後一位。 ["On Fashions in Physic," London Magazine, October 1825]
