contumelious (adj.)

"傲慢、冒犯、辱骂的言辞"，14世纪晚期，源自古法语 contumelie，来自拉丁语 contumelia "谴责，侮辱"，可能源自 contumax "傲慢、顽固、傲慢、不屈服"，特别是指那些拒绝出庭应诉的人，来自 com- 的同化形式，这里可能是一个强调前缀（见 com-），加上 tumere "膨胀"（来自 PIE 词根 *teue- "膨胀"）。

The unhappy man left his country forever. The howl of contumely followed him across the sea, up the Rhine, over the Alps; it gradually waxed fainter; it died away; those who had raised it began to ask each other, what, after all, was the matter about which they had been so clamorous, and wished to invite back the criminal whom they had just chased from them. [Thomas Babington Macaulay, "Lord Byron," 1877]

这个不幸的人永远离开了他的国家。侮辱的嚎叫声在他身后穿过海洋，穿过莱茵河，穿过阿尔卑斯山； 它逐渐变得微弱； 它消失了； 那些发出它的人开始互相询问，到底是什么事情让他们如此喧嚣，希望邀请刚刚被他们追逐出境的罪犯回来。[托马斯·巴宾顿·麦考莱，《拜伦勋爵》，1877年]
