英语词汇goldwynism的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

Goldwynism. “Include me out,” “In two words: impossible,” and “We have passed a lot of water since then” (for “a lot of water has passed under the bridge”) are but three legendary Goldwynisms. An American film pioneer, Samuel Goldwyn has long been considered a modern “Mr. Malaprop,” unri- valed for his fractured English. Goldwyn, born in Warsaw, Poland, on August 27, 1882, founded Goldwyn Pictures Cor- poration, which became part of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer in 1924, and later turned independent producer. He died in 1974. No doubt many of the thousands of Goldwynisms at- tributed to him—word manglings, mixed metaphors, mala- propisms, grammatical blunders, and the like—were invented by press agents, writers, friends, and enemies. But genuine or not, they became part of the legend surrounding the man. See malapropism.
