<注释>When asked which words in the English language are the most difficult to define precisely,a lexicographer would surely mentionfunky. The meaning offunky seems well captured by Geneva Smitherman in Talkin and Testifyin: The Language of Black America, where she states that funky means .[related to] the blue notes or blue mood created in jazz, blues, and soul music generally, down-to-earth soulfully expressed sounds; by extension [related to] the real nitty-gritty or fundamental essence of life, soul to the max..Be that as it may,funky is first recorded in 784 in a reference to musty, old, moldy cheese. Funky then developed the sense .smelling strong or bad,. which could be used to describe body odor.Butfunky was applied to jazz, too—a usage explained in 959 by one F. Newton inJazz Scene : .Critics are on the search for something a little more like the old, original, passion-laden blues: the trade-name which has been suggested for it is ‘funky’(literally: ‘smelly,’ i.e. symbolizing the return from the upper atmosphere to the physical, down-to-earth reality).. Funky comes from the earlier nounfunk, which meant .a strong smell or stink.. This noun can probably be traced back to the Latin wordfômus, .smoke..
当被问及英语中最难准确定义的是哪些词时，词典编纂者肯定会提到funky 这个词。 Funky 的含义似乎被热纳瓦·史密斯曼在 语言和证明： 美国黑人语言一节中解释得很清楚，她认为 funky 指.主要在爵士乐、布鲁斯歌曲、灵乐这些发自灵魂深处的音乐中创造出的音符式的忧郁； 由此延伸为与生命本质精髓有关的，表现美国黑人及其文化特点到极致的。.Funky 最早可能被记录于784年，用于指发霉的、过期的奶酪。 后来，funky 引申到这层意思.闻起来强烈或有异味的，. 可以用来形容身体的气味。但funky 也用于指爵士乐方面， 这种用法于959年在一位名叫F·牛顿的人的书爵士舞台 中有所解释： .批评家们正在找一种有些更象原始的、激情洋溢的老布鲁斯歌曲一样的东西：用来表现后的词就是‘有气息的’（字面意义：‘有气味的，’也就是说，从高高在上的格调降回到自然而率直的风格）。. Funky 一词来自较早出现的名词funk， 意为.一种刺鼻的气味或臭味.。 这个词可能可追溯到拉丁词fumus， .烟.
