Everyone knows the expression "oh you rubbish." When a person is so called, they humiliate him and emphasize his negative qualities. But humiliating someone, we first of all humiliate ourselves.
However, we do not have a psychological article. We look, it means "rubbish" in fact.
The origin and meaning of the word
Bullshit is a curse in the understanding of modern man. Is it so? According to one version, the word "rubbish" came from the verb "to tear up." Tattered, trashy, trashy, trashy. In fact, it had nothing to do with swearing. To tear is to tear to pieces, or to tear up holes. From here we see that the tattered is torn or frayed. Accordingly, rubbish is a ragged or worn person.
But you can be ragged in the literal sense, or you can - figuratively. Let us illustrate with an example: a ragged man is one who has clothes worn in holes. A moral ragtag or scum is a person who does not have any principles. Down, insignificant. They say that they only trample the earth for nothing and smoke the sky. That is, we see that rubbish can be called a morally deserted person. Total worthlessness.
Let us turn to the explanatory dictionary. What will he tell us about the meaning of trash? The dictionary tells of two versions:
- Waste thing or trash.
- Something or someone bad, bad, insignificant.
It turns out we were right. Do you know what synonyms this word has? Junk, nonsense, muck. This is the case of the first version of the value. If we are talking about an ugly person, then the synonym for rubbish is "paskuda." Here it is - a derogatory word.
Is that a curse?
From the point of view of specific abusive words, that is, a mat, this statement cannot be attributed to such. But why, speaking of a man as crappy, does he feel some disgust and contempt? Maybe because this man fell morally low?
Bullshit is a bad person, capable of very nasty misconduct. This one has nothing sacred. You can expect everything from him. It turns out that trash is a curse. But not in our usual form, but more capacious. Defining the main character traits of an individual.
This word was widely used in classical Russian literature. When the writer wanted to describe the character of the hero in one word, let’s say so. And if it was an antipode, then it was described by the capacious word "rubbish". Let us recall Dostoevsky and his work The Idiot. The word "rubbish" is repeatedly mentioned there. Both in the description of the subject and in the characterization of man.
Conclusion
Now the reader knows what the word "rubbish" means. This is either trash, an unnecessary thing, or a nasty person who does not care.
