英语词汇logorrhea的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

词汇	logorrhea
词源	logorrhea. Logorrhea, apparently patterned on diarrhea, comes from the Greek logos, “word,” plus rhein, “flow,” “stream.” It is first recorded as a psychological term in 1904: “Logorrhea refers to the excessive flow of words, a common symptom in cases of mania.” As with many similar terms the word came to be loosely used and can now describe any bigmouth who talks too much.
