    jovial 英文词源

    jovial
    jovial: [16] Etymologically, jovial simply means ‘born under the influence of the planet Jupiter’. It comes via French from Italian gioviale, a derivative of Giove ‘Jupiter’, which itself goes back to the Latin stem Jov- (from which English also gets Jove [14], as in by Jove!). Jupiter was thought of as endowing those born under its sign with happiness, and so by extension jovial came to mean ‘jolly, good-humoured’. The word Jupiter [13] itself represents a Latin compound of Jov- and pater ‘father’.
    jovial (adj.)
    1580s, "under the influence of the planet Jupiter," from Middle French jovial (16c.), from Italian joviale, literally "pertaining to Jupiter," and directly from Latin Iovialis "of Jupiter," from Iovius (used as genitive of Iuppiter) "Jupiter," Roman god of the sky (see Jove). The meaning "good-humored, merry," is from astrological belief that those born under the sign of the planet Jupiter are of such dispositions. Related: Jovially.
