<注释>A bigot may have more in common with God than one might think.Legend has it that Rollo, the first duke of Normandy, refused to kiss the foot of the French king Charles III,uttering the phrasebi got, his borrowing of the assumed Old English equivalent of our expressionby God. Although this story is almost certainly apocryphal,it is true thatbigot was used by the French as a term of abuse for the Normans, but not in a religious sense. Later, however, the word, or very possibly a homonym,was used abusively in French for the Beguines, members of a Roman Catholic lay sisterhood.From the 5th century on Old Frenchbigot meant .an excessively devoted or hypocritical person.. Bigot is first recorded in English in 598 with the sense .a superstitious hypocrite..
一个偏执的人往往比人们想象的更接近上帝。传说第一位诺曼底公爵罗洛拒绝亲吻法国皇帝查理三世的脚时,说了bi got 这个词, 他是借用了假设的古英语里的词。其相当于我们今天的by God (老天作证)这一用法。 尽管这个故事肯定不足为信,但bigot 一词是确实是法国人对诺曼底人的蔑称, 然而无宗教色彩。后来,这个词,很可能是同音异义词,在法语中用来蔑指女修道者──罗马天主教姐妹会成员。从5世纪起,在古法语中,bigot 一词意为.过分虔诚或伪善的人.。 Bigot 首次以英语记载是在598年,其意为.迷信的伪君子。.
