释义

jocundadj.

Brit. /ˈdʒɒk(ʌ)nd/, /ˈdʒəʊk(ʌ)nd/, U.S. /ˈdʒɑkənd/, /ˈdʒoʊkənd/

Etymology: < Old French jocond, jocund (also ju- ) = Spanish jocunde , Italian giocondo , < late Latin jocundus , modification (after jocus joke, jest) of Latin jūcundus pleasant, agreeable, delightful, < juvāre to help, aid, delight, please. Hence the etymological form is jucund adj.; the application of jocund to persons has been affected by association with jocus. Now exclusively a literary word.
