中文詞源
kudos 名聲，榮譽
來自希臘語kydos,歌頌，榮耀，名聲，來自PIE*skeue,注意，感知，詞源同show,caveat.
英文詞源
- kudos (n.)
- "fame, renown," 1799, probably originally in university slang, from Greek kydos "glory, fame," especially in battle, literally "that which is heard of," from PIE root *skeue- "to pay attention, perceive" (see caveat). A singular noun in Greek, but the final -s often is mistaken as a plural suffix in English, leading to the barbarous back-formation kudo (attested by 1936).
