HEADLONG in Context

"Joseph Mallord William Turner … was less a British artist of the Romantic era than a fiery experimentalist whose audacious work blazed a path from serene Romanticism headlong into the turbulent realm of Modernist art." — The Boston Globe, 22 Apr. 2022

“约瑟夫·马洛德·威廉·特纳……与其说是浪漫主义时代的英国艺术家，不如说是一位火热的实验主义者，他的作品开辟了一条从宁静的浪漫主义直奔现代主义艺术动荡领域的道路。”

Did You Know?

Headlong was born out of the Middle English word hedling, a combination of hed ("head") and -ling, an adverb suffix meaning "in such a direction or manner." Thus, hedling meant "with the head first”; it was originally applied to descriptions of falling, or to downward movement. Likely due to the influence of the words along and long, -ling came to be understood as a variant of the adverb suffix -long, a development that carried headlong, as well as sidelong, along with it.

Headlong 起源于中古英语单词 hedling， hed（“head”）与 -ling （副词的后缀）的组合，，意思是“in such a direction or manner「以这样的方向或方式」”。 因此，hedling 的意思是“with the head first「头在前」”；它最初用于描述跌倒或向下运动。可能由于 along 和 long 这两个词的影响，-ling 被理解为副词后缀的变体 -long，一个突如其来一头扎进和一头栽进的。
