英语词汇lovee的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

词汇	lovee
词源	lovee. We tend to associate nonce words like lovee with mod- ern comics. “Amos and Andy,” for instance, were consistently coining things like the hitter and the hittee, the kisser and the kissee, etc. But lovee, in the sense of the one loved by a lover, a recipient of love, dates back at least to the mid 18th century when Samuel Richardson used it in his novel Sir Charles Gran- dison (1735): “The Lover and the Lovee make generally the happiest couple.”
