英文词源
- indisposed (adj.)
- c. 1400, "unprepared;" early 15c., "not in order," from in- (1) "not" + disposed; or else from Late Latin indispositus "without order, confused." Mid-15c. as "diseased;" modern sense of "not very well" is from 1590s. A verb indispose is attested from 1650s but is perhaps a back-formation of this.
中文解释
1. dis- "apart" + posit- + -ion.2. 含义:put things apart, put things to their different positions (directions), put in order, arrange, distribute.3. 也就是把各种事情、东西放置到他们各自不同的位置上。4. References to "temperament" are from astrological use of the word for "position of a planet as a determining influence".5. in- "not, opposite of" + disposed.6. => "unfavorable influence" (in astrology).7. => "ill health, disorder of the mind or body; unfavorable disposition, hostility; inclination to evil; wickedness; public disorder, lawlessness".
