中文词源

allude 暗指

前缀al-同ad-.词根lud, 玩耍, 见ludic, 玩耍的。原指开玩笑，嘲笑，后暗指，影射。

英文词源

allude (v.): 1530s, "mock," from Middle French alluder or directly from Latin alludere "to play, sport, joke, jest," from ad- "to" (see ad-) + ludere "to play" (see ludicrous). Meaning "make an indirect reference, point in passing" is from 1570s. Related: Alluded; alluding.

中文解释

1、以玩笑(play, joke, jest)的口吻提及，当然就不是明说了，而是暗示、暗指，暗讽，影射，转弯抹角地说到(提及)了。2、带有介词性质含义的前缀在构成单词后，如果该单词有不及物性质，那么它后面再跟介词时，往往跟前缀的介词性质含义相同。3、al- "to" + lud- + -e.
