| 词源 | KMIT. When foreign reporters questioned him about the name of a new ministry the Bolsheviks formed after the Rus- sian Revolution Leon Trotsky told them it was named KMIT. Newspapers all over the world called the agency by these ini- tials until someone found out what they stood for. Trotsky had been playing a contemptuous joke on the reporters and their capitalist employers. KMIT stood for the Yiddish kuss mir im tuches, “kiss my ass.” |
