你有沒有遇到過豬一樣的隊(duì)友？如果你遇到過，你心里蹦出來的英文單詞是哪個(gè)？是S打頭的那個(gè)嗎？Stupid？還是Silly？或者，你心里想的是：比豬還笨！又該用哪個(gè)英文單詞表示？

dunce

拙笨的人；（尤指）遲鈍的學(xué)生

Poor John Duns Scotus … The followers of Scottish theologian and scholar Duns were considered enemies of learning by 16th-century humanists and reformers, who referred to them as ‘dunces’. So if classroom or scholarly foolishness is the sticking point, then dunceis the right word for you.

可憐的約翰·鄧·司各脫……16世紀(jì)的人文主義者和改革者把蘇格蘭神學(xué)家和學(xué)者鄧的追隨者視為學(xué)習(xí)的敵人，因而稱他們?yōu)?ldquo;dunces”。所以，如果蠢笨的行為發(fā)生在教室或?qū)W術(shù)環(huán)境下，你可以用“dunce”。

例句：

I was a dunce at chemistry.

我在化學(xué)方面是個(gè)劣等生。

無知的人

‘Ignoramus’ was the endorsement given by a grand jury when they consideredthe prosecution’s evidence for an indictment not sufficient to warrant the casegoing forward. The modern sense of ignoramus may come from the name of acharacter in George Ruggle’s 1615 comedy Ignoramus, which satirizes theignorance of lawyers.

歷史上，“ignoramus”是大陪審團(tuán)認(rèn)為檢方起訴證據(jù)不足、案件無法往前推進(jìn)時(shí)使用的措辭。這個(gè)詞的現(xiàn)代意義可能來自George Ruggle1615年的喜劇“無知（Ignoramus）”，該劇諷刺了律師的無知。

例句：

I'm a complete ignoramus where computers are concerned.

在電腦方面，我完全是個(gè)門外漢。

傻瓜，笨蛋

Not only foolish, but also dull! Dullard comes from the Middle Dutch word dullaert, from dul(‘dull’).

不僅是愚蠢的，還是無聊的！Dullard來自公元1100–1500的荷蘭語dullaert，從dul演變而來的。

例句：

In this well-educated family, Darwin was considered to be rather dull. At one time his school headmaster called him a dullard.

在這個(gè)很有文化涵養(yǎng)的家庭里，達(dá)爾文被看成是相當(dāng)?shù)剡t鈍。有一次，他的校長(zhǎng)稱他是笨蛋。

Australian NZ informal A stupid or incompetent person.A loanword from Malagasy, this Australian and New Zealand English word refers either to a variety of songbird or to a stupid or incompetent person. The latter meaning is reputed to come from the name of an Australian racehorse of the 1920s that consistently finished last or near last in races.

這個(gè)詞是從馬爾加什語借來的外來詞，在今天的澳大利亞和新西蘭用得較多，泛指各類夜鶯，也指愚蠢或不稱職的人。后一個(gè)意思據(jù)說是來自上個(gè)世紀(jì)20年代澳大利亞的一匹賽馬的名字，這匹賽馬總是在比賽中獲得倒數(shù)一、二名。

The OED puts it best: ‘A wooden head, a wooden block for hats or wigs; hence, a head with no more intelligence in it than one of these, a blockish head’. Ouch.

例句：

Sure, he might really be a blockhead!

的確如此，他真是一個(gè)笨蛋！

Blockhead is only the tip of the icebergwhen it comes to ‘head’ name-calling. There’s also the wonderful-soundingdunderhead, and a score of others, including chucklehead, knucklehead,muttonhead, pudding-head, thickhead, airhead, and pinhead.

當(dāng)用“head（頭）”罵人時(shí)，“Blockhead”只是冰山一角。還有聽起來更精彩的dunderhead，和其他一些詞，包括chucklehead, knucklehead, muttonhead, pudding-head, thickhead,airhead, pinhead……
