FUCK的单词组合由来
"Flen,flyys and freris"
Etymology
"Flen,flyys and freris"
The usually accepted first known occurrence is in code in a poem in a mixture of Latin and English composed some time before 1500.The poem,which satirizes the Carmelite friars of Cambridge,England,takes its title,"Flen flyys",from the first words of its opening line,Flen,flyys,and freris (= "Fleas,flies,and friars").The line that contains fuck reads Non sunt in coeli,quia gxddbov xxkxzt pg ifmk.Removing the substitution cipher (here,replacing each letter by the next letter in alphabetical order,as the English alphabet was then) on the phrase "gxddbov xxkxzt pg ifmk" yields non sunt in coeli,quia fvccant vvivys of heli,which translated means,"They are not in heaven because they fuck wives of Ely".[3] The phrase was coded likely because it accused some Church personnel of misbehaving; it is uncertain to what extent the word fuck was considered acceptable at the time.(The stem of fvccant is an English word used as Latin:English medieval Latin has many examples of writers using English words when they did not know the Latin word:"workmannus" is an example.) (In the Middle English of this poem,the term wife was still used generically for "woman.")
