英语词汇hot-blooded的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

词汇	hot-blooded
词源	hot-blooded; cold-blooded. One would guess such a basic term as hot-blooded, for “passionate or excitable,” would go back to early English. But the term appears to have been coined by Shakespeare. Wrote the Swan of Avon, in The Merry Wives of Windsor (1598): “Now the hot-blooded gods assist me.” Shake- speare had earlier coined, or at least first recorded, the antonym cold-blooded, in King John (1595): “Thou cold-blooded slave, hast thou not spoken like thunder on my side?”
