翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Mumpsimus ： ウィキペディア英語版 Mumpsimus A mumpsimus is an action by a person who adheres to a routine, idea, custom, set of beliefs, or a certain use of language that has been shown to be unreasonable or incorrect. For example, a person may continue to say ''all intents and purposes'' as ''all intensive purposes'',〔http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/for_all_intensive_purposes〕 even after being corrected. The term mumpsimus may also refer to the person who does the action. ==Definition== Mumpsimus has been defined as a "traditional custom obstinately adhered to however unreasonable it may be", as well as "someone who obstinately clings to an error, bad habit or prejudice, even after the foible has been exposed and the person humiliated; also, any error, bad habit, or prejudice clung to in this fashion". In other words, ''mumpsimus'' can describe the behavior, as well as the person doing it. ''Garner's Modern American Usage'' says the word could describe George W. Bush because of his persistent habit of pronouncing "nuclear" as /noo-kyə-lər/ instead of the standard /noo-klee-ər/, despite the error being widely reported. 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「Mumpsimus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
