The first known usage was 1923.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Horseshit - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary )〕 The word horseshit or horse shit can mean or be used to describe: *The feces of the horse; see horse manure. (''In this meaning more often spelled as two words'') *Nonsense, either inaccurate statements spoken out of ignorance rather than deception, or irrelevant statements (which are not necessarily false) spoken to avoid answering a direct question or to divert the conversation. (''usually spelled as one word'') (slang): see bullshit. *Appearance, as in: You look like horseshit. In ''Kodak Moment'' Ned Gardner uses "You like horseshit," referring to ones appearance.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Kodak Moment )〕 One would not say you look like bullshit. This is the difference in colloquial use. *Expressing how one feels: I feel like horseshit. Again one would not say I feel like bullshit. However one could say I feel like crap. *Taste, as in: This beer tastes like horseshit.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title='Horseshit Beer,' Craft Everything Else at Blind Butcher )〕 One could say this beer tastes like crap but would not say this beer tastes like bullshit. *Description, horseshit can be used as an adjective to describe a noun. That is horseshit beer.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Racked Dallas: Lower Greenville Archives )〕 ==Usage== This word is generally used in a derogatory manner and can be used as a noun or adjective. It is often used to dismiss viewpoints one considers to be absurd. Ie. Two guys discussing relativism and Bubba over hears them and says, "That sounds like a bunch of horseshit." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Horseshit」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
