oxymoron

etymology_texts: 首次記錄於17世纪，名词用法见于5世纪拉丁語 oxymōrum (形容词)，oxymōrus (形容词)的中性主格形式，源自古希臘語 ὀξύμωρος (oxúmōros)，由下列成分构成的复合词：ὀξύς (oxús，“尖锐的，尖端的”)（英语oxy-，亦出现于oxygen (“氧气”)） + μωρός (mōrós，“愚蠢的”)（英语moron (“蠢货”)）。字面义为“尖锐愚蠢”。 – 这个词本身就是自相矛盾，因此是一种自描述词。对比sophomore (字面意思是“聪明笨蛋”)，其得到了相似的解释。复合词形式ὀξύμωρον (oxúmōron)在现在流传下来的古希腊语文献中不可考。

text: For Theodor Adorno and his colleagues at the Frankfurt School who coined the term, "culture industry" was an oxymoron, intended to set up a critical contrast between the exploitative, repetitive mode of industrial mass production under capitalism and the associations of transformative power and aesthetico-moral transcendence that the concept of culture carried in the 1940s, when it still meant "high" culture.

notes: 历史上，oxymoron曾指“有道理的悖论”，或者“聪慧但愚蠢的说法”，“大智若愚的说法”。它本意用于指出这种说法中深藏的道理，论点。白话中，oxymoron常用来指“自相矛盾”，但是部分使用者认为是错误的，因此在某些情况下最好避免使用。

text: When human beings bond—by hugging, kissing, touching, having sex, eating together, giving massages, or even when singing together or speaking reassuring words—oxytocin brings us “in from the cold,” warming us—quite literally—as it redirects blood flow into hands, feet, chests and cheeks.

translation: 当人类通过拥抱、亲吻、抚摸、做爱、一起吃饭、按摩，甚至一起唱歌或说安慰的话来建立联系时，催产素会让我们“从寒冷中走出来”，让我们感到温暖——直接按字面意思理解就好——因为它会将血液流向手、脚、胸部和脸颊。

pariah

etymology_texts:
源自泰米爾語 பறையர் (paṟaiyar)，源自பறையன் (paṟaiyaṉ，“鼓手”)，源自பறை (paṟai，“鼓”)或馬拉雅拉姆語 പറയർ (paṟayar)，源自പറയൻ (paṟayan，“鼓手”)，源自പറ (paṟa，“鼓”)。泰米尔语中的parai或马来语中的para指的是一种王要宣布消息时敲的大型鼓。专职敲parai的人称为paraiyar，在基于种姓的社会阶层中属较低等级，因此派生出了这个词。
或者，派生自梵語 पर (para，“遥远的；局外人”)。

Let every youth take a leaf out of my book and make it a point to account for everything that comes into and goes out of his pocket, and like me he is sure to be a gainer in the end.
