shimmy 的詞源
shimmy(v.)
"做一個暗示性的舞蹈",1918年,可能是通過短語 shake the shimmy 傳入,這可能來自 shimmy(名詞),這是美國方言中的 chemise(被誤認爲是複數形式; 請參見 shammy),該詞最早可追溯到1837年。或者動詞可能與 shimmer(動詞)相關,通過閃爍的光線概念。"汽車振動"的轉義意義是在1925年之前。相關: Shimmied; shimmying。作爲名詞,這是一種流行的、快速的、暗示性的前花樣女郎舞蹈,最早出現在1919年。
The first "shimmy" dance to appear, almost simultaneously with the signing of the armistice, was greeted with a howl of derision. "Vulgar"! cried the sensitive; "Absurd"! was the verdict of the scornful; "Difficult, but darned attractive!" modern art expressed it. Then, the "shimmy" in its rightful form was presented by Gilda Grey in the Shubert extravaganza "The Gaieties of 1919". Result: a lawsuit with a rival theatrical producer, and the awakened interest of everybody in the much-discussed and condemned dance. ["Good Morning Judge! 'Shake Your Shimmy,'" in The Greenville (S.C.) News, Aug. 27, 1919]
第一個"shimmy"舞蹈幾乎與停戰協定同時出現,引起了一片嘲笑聲。"低俗"!敏感的人們喊道; "荒謬"!蔑視者的評價; "難,但非常有吸引力!"現代藝術這樣表達。然後,Gilda Grey 在舞臺劇《1919年的快樂》中以正確的形式呈現了"shimmy"。結果:與競爭劇院製片人的訴訟,以及所有人對這個備受討論和譴責的舞蹈的興趣。["Good Morning Judge! 'Shake Your Shimmy,'" in The Greenville (S.C.) News, Aug. 27, 1919]
