中文詞源
cabal 政治陰謀小集團(tuán)
來(lái)自希伯來(lái)語(yǔ)，義為神秘的，詞源同Cabala. 現(xiàn)詞義來(lái)自于17世紀(jì)英國(guó)歷史上組成陰謀集團(tuán)的五個(gè)大臣姓名首字母縮小(Clifford, Arlington,Buckingham,Ashley,and Lauderdale)
英文詞源
- cabal (n.)
- 1520s, "mystical interpretation of the Old Testament," later "society, small group meeting privately" (1660s), from French cabal, in both senses, from Medieval Latin cabbala (see cabbala). Popularized in English 1673 as an acronym for five intriguing ministers of Charles II (Clifford, Arlington, Buckingham, Ashley, and Lauderdale), which gave the word its sinister connotations.
