英语词汇pernod的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

pernod. absinthe was generally made from species of wormwood, Artemisia absinthium, the plant so named because it had been dedicated to Artemesia, Greek goddess of the hunt and moon. Long prized for its reputed aphrodisiac powers by the French, the liqueur is 70–80 percent alcohol, but the oil of wormwood in it can cause blindness, insanity, and even death. For this reason absinthe was banned in Switzerland in 1908, in the United States four years later, and outlawed by France in 1915. Pernod, a greenish-colored, licorice-flavored liqueur named for its French manufacturer, quickly took its place. Per- nod does not get a person drunk as quickly as absinthe, being 40–50 percent alcohol, but, except for the anise used to replace the banned oil of wormwood, it contains all the same ingredients.
