英语词汇bog的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

bog. Bog is the Russian word for God. In 1930 1 million cop- ies of a school textbook containing a poem by Nekrasov with the word Bog in it were printed by the Soviet government. Then someone discovered, to the horror of the Kremlin, that Bog was spelled with a capital letter throughout the poem. Reducing Bog to bog required resetting type in 16 pages of each of the million books printed, but the change was made, despite the expense, so that “the books reached the Soviet children uncon- taminated.” Despite the past efforts of Soviet censors the Russian language remains rich in references to God, such ex- pressions as “God knows,” “God save us,” “Oh, my God,” and “Praise God” being quite common. “Communism is gone,” one anonymous wit said recently, “but God remains.”
