词源

infanticide (n.)

1650年代,“杀婴儿”,尤指杀新生儿或未出生的婴儿; 1670年代,“杀婴儿者”,源自 infant + -cide。可能源自法语 infanticide(16世纪)。

In Christian and Hebrew communities infanticide has always been regarded as not less criminal than any other kind of murder; but in most others, in both ancient and modern times, it has been practised and regarded as even excusable, and in some enjoined and legally performed, as in cases of congenital weakness or deformity among some of the communities of ancient Greece. [Century Dictionary]
在基督教和希伯来社区中,杀婴儿一直被视为不亚于任何其他形式的谋杀; 但在大多数其他社区中,无论是古代还是现代,它都被视为甚至是可原谅的,在一些社区中甚至被规定和合法执行,例如在古希腊的一些社区中,对于天生的虚弱或畸形的情况。[世纪词典]
最早记录年份: 1650s
