<注釋>The history of the wordcaricature takes us back through the centuries to a time when the Romans occupied Gaul, offering the blessings of civilization to the Gaulsbut also borrowing from them as well.One such borrowing, the Gaulish word.karros, meaning .a wagon or cart,. became Latincarrus, .a Gallic type of wagon.. This Latin word has continued to roll through the English language,giving uscar, career, cargo, carry, and charge, among others. Caricature, another offspring of carrus, came to us via French from Italian,in whichcaricatura, the source of the French word, was derived from Italian caricare, .to load, burden, or exaggerate.. Caricare in turn came from Late Latin carric3re, .to load,. derived from the Romans` Gaulish borrowingcarrus.
Caricature 一詞的歷史可上溯到很多世紀(jì)以前當(dāng)古羅馬人占領(lǐng)高盧的時(shí)候。 古羅馬人給高盧人帶去文明開化的好處，同時(shí)也從高盧人那里有所借鑒。其中一個(gè)借用語，即意為.運(yùn)貨馬車或畜拉車.的高盧語詞karros ， 演變成拉丁語carrus ，意為.一種高盧式運(yùn)貨馬車.。 這一拉丁詞語在英語中繼續(xù)發(fā)展，使我們得到了car，career，cargo，carry 和 charge 等諸多詞匯。 Caricature 是 carrus 的另一產(chǎn)物， 從意大利語經(jīng)法語而演變過來的。演變過程中，做為法語詞源的caricatura 是從意大利語，即意為.裝貨，使負(fù)重荷或夸張.的 caricare 衍生而來。 反過來，Caricare 源自后期拉丁語 carricare ，意為.裝貨.， 而它又衍生自古羅馬人從高盧語中借來的carrus
