<注釋>When asked which words in the English language are the most difficult to define precisely,a lexicographer would surely mentionfunky. The meaning offunky seems well captured by Geneva Smitherman in Talkin and Testifyin: The Language of Black America, where she states that funky means .[related to] the blue notes or blue mood created in jazz, blues, and soul music generally, down-to-earth soulfully expressed sounds; by extension [related to] the real nitty-gritty or fundamental essence of life, soul to the max..Be that as it may,funky is first recorded in 784 in a reference to musty, old, moldy cheese. Funky then developed the sense .smelling strong or bad,. which could be used to describe body odor.Butfunky was applied to jazz, too—a usage explained in 959 by one F. Newton inJazz Scene : .Critics are on the search for something a little more like the old, original, passion-laden blues: the trade-name which has been suggested for it is ‘funky’(literally: ‘smelly,’ i.e. symbolizing the return from the upper atmosphere to the physical, down-to-earth reality).. Funky comes from the earlier nounfunk, which meant .a strong smell or stink.. This noun can probably be traced back to the Latin wordmus, .smoke..
當被問及英文中最難準確定義的是哪些詞時,字典編纂者肯定會提到funky 這個詞。 Funky 的含義似乎被熱納瓦·史密斯曼在 語言和證明: 美國黑人語言一節中解釋得很清楚,她認為 funky 指.主要在爵士樂、布魯斯歌曲、靈樂這些發自靈魂深處的音樂中創造出的音符式的憂鬱由此延伸為與生命本質精髓有關的,表現美國黑人及其文化特點到極致的。.Funky 最早可能被記錄於784年,用於指發霉的、過期的乳酪。 後來,funky 引申到這層意思.聞起來強烈或有異味的,. 可以用來形容身體的氣味。但funky 也用於指爵士樂方面, 這種用法於959年在一位名叫F·牛頓的人的書爵士舞台有所解釋: .批評家們正在找一種有些更象原始的、激情洋溢的老布魯斯歌曲一樣的東西:用來表現後的詞就是‘有氣息的’(字面意義:‘有氣味的,’也就是說,從高高在上的格調降回到自然而率直的風格)。. Funky 一詞來自較早出現的名詞funk, 意為.一種刺鼻的氣味或臭味.。 這個詞可能可追溯到拉丁詞fumus, .煙.
