单词 od
释义

odn.1int.

Brit. /ɒd/, U.S. /ɑd/, /ɔd/
Forms:

α. 1600s– od, 1600s– odd, 1800s od', 1800s 'ord (English regional (Yorkshire)), 1800s– oad (English regional (northern)), 1800s– 'od, 1800s– o'd (Scottish), 1800s– 'o'd (Scottish), 1900s– ot (Scottish).

β. (In genitive) 1600s o'ds, 1600s– odds, 1600s– odd's, 1600s– od's, 1600s– 'ods, 1600s– 'od's, 1600s– ods, 1700s odz (English regional (Lancashire)).

Also with capital initial.
Origin: A variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymon: god n. and int.
Etymology: Euphemistic alteration of god n. and int.The usage came into vogue around 1600 when, to avoid the overt profanation of sacred names, many euphemistic and disguised equivalents became prevalent. Compare Gad n.2 and int., lud int. and n.2, ad n.2, Uds n., etc. It is unclear at which point changes in the written form of the word and its compounds may result from the etymological relationship with god n. and int. becoming obscured, rather than from euphemistic alteration. With the form 'ord perhaps compare lord n. and int.
A euphemistic substitute for God in asseverative or exclamatory formulae. Now archaic and regional.
A. n.1
In expressions such as od's me, od's my life, od's my will, etc. Also in elliptical use. Now archaic. [Either originating from the genitive compounds (see Compounds 1 Compounds 3) through some confusion; or perhaps (as has been suggested) 's is for save, although the fuller form is not attested until considerably later (see Phrases). Compare god n. and int. Phrases 1c(b)(ii), Phrases 3b(e).]

Odn.2

Brit. /ɒd/, /əʊd/, U.S. /ɑd/, /ɔd/, /oʊd/
Forms: also with lower-case initial.
Origin: A borrowing from German. Etymon: German Od.
Etymology: < German Od (K. von Reichenbach 1845, in Ann. der Chem. u. Pharm. 53 216), an arbitrary formation (see quots. 1846, 1850 at sense 1).
Now historical.
1. A hypothetical force proposed by Baron Karl von Reichenbach as pervading all nature and accounting for various physical and psychological phenomena (also called odyle: see odyle n.). Frequently attributive, esp. as Od force.The Od force was thought to manifest itself in certain persons of sensitive temperament by streaming from their fingertips, and to be exhibited especially by magnets, crystals, heat, light, and chemical action. It was held to account for the phenomena of mesmerism and animal magnetism, among other things.
ΘΚΠ

magnetod1850
odyle1850
1846 W. Gregory in tr. K. L. F. Reichenbach Abstr. of Res. Magn. vi. 89 The author has given to the new imponderable the name of Od, a name not possessing any meaning, but admitting of being compounded, according to the genius of the German language.
1850 J. Ashburner tr. K. L. F. Reichenbach Physico-physiol. Res. Dynamics of Magn. 224 I will take the liberty to propose the short word Od for the force which we are engaged in examining. Every one will admit it to be desirable that a unisyllabic word beginning with a vowel should be selected..for the sake of convenient conjunction in the manifold compound words.
1851 H. Mayo On Truths Pop. Superstitions (ed. 2) 13 To his new force..Von Reichenbach..gave the arbitrary but convenient name of Od, or the Od force.
1856 E. B. Browning Aurora Leigh vii. 295 That od-force of German Reichenbach Which still from female finger-tips burns blue.
1885 H. S. Olcott Theosophy 212 So much of light is let into the old domain of Church ‘miracles’ by mesmerism and the Od discovery.
1937 Sci. Monthly June 494/2 The claims of Baron Reichenbach, a distinguished chemist, to the discovery of another new force which he named ‘Od’, which..was found to have positive and negative qualities and to behave differently for different metals, etc.
1972 Amer. Q. 24 492 While American scientific journals ignored Reichenbach's findings, Od managed to get tremendous amounts of publicity in the press and elsewhere.
1991 P. Heselton Elements of Earth Mysteries (BNC) 33 Von Reichenbach..published the results of numerous experiments with sensitives using techniques which enabled them to sense an energy which he called ‘the odic force’, ‘od’ or ‘odyle’.
2. Forming the second element in various derivatives, as artemod [lunar ‘od’] , biod [the ‘od’ of animal life] , chymod [chemical ‘od’] , crystallod [the ‘od’ of crystallization] , elod [electric ‘od’] , heliod [the ‘od’ of the sun] , magnetod [magnetic ‘od’] , pantod [‘od’ in general] , thermod [heat ‘od’] , etc. Obsolete. [Occurring only in loans and adaptations of German compounds used by Reichenbach, none of which have gained any currency outside translations of Reichenbach's works.]
ΚΠ
1846 W. Gregory Baron Von Reichenbach's Abstr. Res. on Magnetism vi. 89 Thus he calls the force, abstractedly, Od; as it is found in crystals, magnets, the living body, in heat, in light, &c. Crystallod, Magnetod, Biod, Thermod, Photod, &c. Although this may answer very well in German, it is not likely that these names will be adopted in this country.
1850 J. Ashburner tr. K. L. F. Reichenbach Physico-physiol. Res. Dynamics of Magn. 224 Instead of saying, ‘the Od derived from crystallization’, we may name this product crystallod, that from animal life biod, that from heat thermod, that from electricity briefly as elod, from light photod, and so on, magnetod, chymod, heliod, artemod, tribod, and for the material world generally, pantod, &c.
