In a book about the languages of New South Wales published in 790 is found the native termboo-mer-rit, glossed .the scimitar,. because of the curved shape of the boomerang.In 825 in a passage containing the first recorded instance of the English formboomerang we are told it is .a short crested weapon which the natives of Port Jackson [now part of Sydney] project with accurate aim into a rotary motion..In 827 another commentator says that this term .may be retained for want of a more descriptive name..我们从澳大利亚本土语言借来的单词,比如billabong(死水潭),budgerigar(虎皮鹦鹉),dingo(骗子),kangaroo(袋鼠),koala(树袋熊),kookaburra(笑翠鸟),waddy(木棍) 以及 wallaby(沙袋鼠) 等, 一般都有来自异国的声音,boomerang 也不例外。 790年出版的一本关于新南威尔士的语言的书中有个本土词汇boo-mer-rit, 意为.偃月刀.,是因为其回飞镖的弯形。在825年的一篇短文中有boomerang 的英语形式的最早记录, 我们被告知那是.一种杰克森港[今悉尼的一部分]土著设计的带有饰章的短武器,能在旋转运动中精确击中目标。.827年另一位评论者说这个词汇.由于缺少一个更富描述性的名字可以保留.注释> |
