allegory词源

allegory

allegory: [14] Etymologically, allegory means ‘speaking otherwise’. It comes from a Greek compound based on allos ‘other’ (which is related to Latin alius, as in English alibi and alias, and to English else) and agoreúein ‘speak publicly’ (derived from agorá ‘(place of) assembly’, which is the source of English agoraphobia and is related to gregarious). Greek allēgorein ‘speak figuratively’ produced the noun allēgorīā, which passed into English via Latin and French.=> aggregate, agoraphobia, alias, alibi, else, gregarious

allegory (n.)

late 14c., from Old French allegorie (12c.), from Latin allegoria, from Greek allegoria \"figurative language, description of one thing under the image of another,\" literally \"a speaking about something else,\" from allos \"another, different\" (see alias (adv.)) + agoreuein \"speak openly, speak in the assembly,\" from agora \"assembly\" (see agora).
