luscious的词源

英文词源

luscious (adj.)

late 15c., perhaps a variant (with form perhaps influenced by Old French luxure, lusure) of Middle English licius "delicious" (c. 1400), which is perhaps a shortening of delicious, but OED is against this. Related: Lusciously; lusciousness.

luscious：美味的，性感的

来自lusty，有胃口的，愉悦的，字母t讹误或音变拼作字母c,比较vice,vitiate.词义由美味的引申为性感的，参照dish,dishy(性感的)。俗词源认为该词来自delicious的口语licious,后来拼作luscious.
