| 词汇 | cushy |
| 词源 | cushy. Comfortable, undemanding, as in “She’s got a cushy job.” Here we have two good choices, neither of them certain. One theory says the word is simply a shortening of cushion with a y attached. Another traces the word, first recorded in 1916, to the Hindi khuush, pleasant, which British soldiers in India heard and added a y to. |
