英语词汇the most unkindest cut of all的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

词汇	the most unkindest cut of all
词源	the most unkindest cut of all. “This was the most unkindest cut of all,” Shakespeare had Antony say in Julius Caesar. This most famous of literary double superlatives wasn’t the only such “grammatical crudity” he used. The double superlative and double comparative (“more larger”) were considered ex- cellent devices for emphasis, by Elizabethan writers. So were multiple negatives like the Bard’s “Thou hast spoken no word all this while—nor understood none either.”
