释义

Teutonicadj.n.

Brit. /tjuːˈtɒnɪk/, /tʃuːˈtɒnɪk/, U.S. /t(j)uˈtɑnɪk/
Forms: Also 1600s Theut-.
Etymology: < Latin Teutonicus, < Teutonēs.Late Roman writers reckoned the Teutones among the peoples of Germania, and Teutonicus became a common poetic equivalent for Germānicus. It is now however held by many that they were not a Germanic people. But, before 900, German writers in Latin began to follow Latin poetic precedent by using Theutonica lingua instead of the barbarian or non-classical Theotisca, to render the native tiutisch, tiutsch (Old High German diutisc, modern deutsch = Old Saxon thiudisc, Old English þéodisc, literally ‘national, popular, vulgar’) as a designation of their vulgar tongue in contrast to Latin, as if this German adjective were identical with the ancient ethnic name. In 1200 lingua Teutonica was similarly used, and thenceforth Teutonicus became a usual Latin rendering of Deutsch or German. Some Early German comparative philologists (e.g. Bopp in 1820) used Teutonisch as the name for the family of languages including Gothic, German, Scandinavian, and English; but for this Germanisch is now more used in German, and Germanic by many in English. But in English there is an awkwardness and sometimes ambiguity in using Germanic beside German (in its ordinary political sense), which does not arise in German or French, where germanisch and germanique are entirely distinct fromdeutsch and allemand. To avoid this, many English scholars preferred ‘Teutonic’ as the term for the linguistic family, and it is commonly so used in this dictionary.
