<注釋>It is hard to imagine the English language without the wordjoke , butjoke is only first recorded in '70. Sincejoke was originally considered a slang or informal usage, it was not suitable to all contexts.The change in status ofjoke from then to now provides us with an excellent example of how usage changes. Joke has a decent enough heritage at any rate, coming from Latiniocus, .jest, sport, laughingstock, trifle..Iocus in turn can be traced back to the Indo-European root yek-, meaning .to speak,. from which also comes the Umbrian wordiuka, .prayers,. and the Welsh wordiaith, .speech..
我們很難想像英文中如果沒有joke 這個詞會怎樣, 但是joke 在'70年才首次有文字記載。 因為joke 起初被認為是俚語或非正式用語, 以前它並不是在所有的文章中都適用的。從那時到現在joke 地位上的變化給我們提供了一個關於語言用法如何變化的極好的例子。 不管怎樣joke詞源算得上很體面, 它來自於拉丁語中iocus 一詞, 表示.玩笑,遊戲,笑柄,瑣事.。Iocus 反過來又可追溯到印歐語系中的詞根 yek- 表示.說話., 從這個詞根還派生出翁布里亞語中iuka 一詞,即.祈禱., 以及威爾斯語中iaith 一詞,即.講話,演說.
