单词 jingo
释义

jingoint.n.adj.

Brit. /ˈdʒɪŋɡəʊ/, U.S. /ˈdʒɪŋɡoʊ/
Forms: Also 1600s jeingo.
Etymology: Appears first c1670 as a piece of conjuror's gibberish, usually hey or high jingo!, probably a mere piece of sonorous nonsense with an appearance of mysterious meaning. In 1694 by jingo occurs in Motteux's translation of Rabelais, where the French has par Dieu: this, being contemporary with the conjuror's term, may be presumed (though not proved) to be the same word, substituted, as in many other cases, for a sacred name: compare by golly, gock, gom, gosh, jabers, etc. In Scotland, by jing (or jings) has long been in common use. A recent conjecture, since jingo began to attract attention, would identify it with the Basque word for ‘God’, given by Van Eys and Larramendi as Jinko, Jainko (Yinko, Yainko), Jincoa, Jaincoa; the suggestion being that this may have been caught up from Basque sailors. Such an origin is not impossible, but is as yet unsupported by evidence. The grotesque notion that the word is short for St. Gengulphus is merely a joke of the author of the Ingoldsby Legends.
A. int. and n.
I. As an interjection or exclamation.
1. (Usually hey or high jingo!) A conjuror's call for the appearance of something: the opposite of hey presto!, by which a thing is bidden to be gone. Hence, an exclamation of surprise at the appearance of something. Obsolete.
