词态变化
复数: sophomores;
助记提示
1、sopho- + more(个人认为，这样更合理).
2、该词后半截的准确来源和演变过程说不清楚；个人认为，是直接连接单词“more”更加合理，表示相对于大一新生“freshman”更加有智慧、更加有知识。
3. 又聪明，又笨。
中文词源
sophomore 大学二年级学生，高中二年级学生
拼写俗化自 sophumer,辩论者，来自 sophume,古拼写形式于 sophism,辩论，诡辩。后用于指 大学二年级学生或高中二年级学生，可能来自这一阶段的学习中所包含的辩论技巧学习，如 现在本科教育大二进行的论文写作练习。拼写俗化可以受俗词源影响，来自希腊语 sophos, 聪明的，智慧的，moros,笨蛋，弱智，词源同 moron,oxymoron.或简单的 more,更加，即变得 稍微聪明一点。
英文词源
- sophomore (n.)
- 1680s, "student in the second year of university study," literally "arguer," altered from sophumer (1650s, from sophume, archaic variant form of sophism), probably by influence of folk etymology derivation from Greek sophos "wise" + moros "foolish, dull." The original reference might be to the dialectic exercises that formed a large part of education in the middle years. At Oxford and Cambridge, a sophister (from sophist with spurious -er as in philosopher) was a second- or third-year student (what Americans would call a "junior" might be a senior sophister).
