| 词汇 | rodomontade |
| 词源 | rodomontade. The braggart Moorish king Rodomonte in the Italian epic Orlando Furioso (1505–15) gave his name to this word for empty vainglorious boasting, which is sometimes incorrectly spelled rhodomontade. Thus Rodomonte’s actual bravery has been forgotten in the language. |
