Although this story is almost certainly apocryphal,it is true thatbigot was used by the French as a term of abuse for the Normans, but not in a religious sense. Later, however, the word, or very possibly a homonym,was used abusively in French for the Beguines, members of a Roman Catholic lay sisterhood.From the 15th century on Old Frenchbigot meant "an excessively devoted or hypocritical person.” Bigot is first recorded in English in 1598 with the sense "a superstitious hypocrite.” 一个偏执的人往往比人们想象的更接近上帝。传说第一位诺曼底公爵罗洛拒绝亲吻法国皇帝查理三世的脚时，说了bi got 这个词， 他是借用了假设的古英语里的词。其相当于我们今天的by God （老天作证）这一用法。 尽管这个故事肯定不足为信，但bigot 一词是确实是法国人对诺曼底人的蔑称， 然而无宗教色彩。后来，这个词，很可能是同音异义词，在法语中用来蔑指女修道者──罗马天主教姐妹会成员。从15世纪起，在古法语中，bigot 一词意为“过分虔诚或伪善的人”。 Bigot 首次以英语记载是在1598年，其意为“迷信的伪君子。” 〔Cabrini〕Italian-born American religious leader who founded the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart (1880) and was the first American to be canonized (1946).卡夫里尼，弗朗西斯·泽维尔：(1850-1917) 意大利裔美国宗教领袖，他于1880年建立了“圣心姐妹教会”，是第一个被封为圣徒的美国人（1946年）年〔sisterly〕Of, characteristic of, or befitting sisters or a sister.姐妹的：姐妹的，姐妹般的，为姐妹们所应做的〔Danaides〕The daughters of Danaus, who at their father's command murdered their bridegrooms on their wedding night and were condemned in Hades to pour water eternally into a leaky vessel.达那伊得斯姐妹：达那俄斯的女儿们，听命于父亲，在新婚之夜杀死了她们的新郎，被罚入地狱里永不停息地用渗漏的工具取水〔sultana〕The wife, mother, sister, or daughter of a sultan.苏丹女眷：苏丹的妻子、母亲、姐妹或女儿〔Eumenides〕The Furies.欧墨尼得斯：希腊神话中复仇女神三姐妹〔aunt〕The sister of one's father or mother.姑妈，姨妈：一个人的父亲或母亲的姐妹〔sib〕A brother or sister; a sibling.血亲，亲属：兄弟或姐妹；兄弟姐妹〔contrast〕siblings who contrast sharply in interests and abilities; a color that contrasted clearly with the dark background.在兴趣和能力上迥然相异的兄弟（姐妹）；与黑色背影形成鲜明对比的颜色〔fratricide〕One who has killed one's brother or sister.杀兄弟或姐妹的人〔sororal〕From Latin soror [sister] * see swesor- 源自 拉丁语 soror [姐妹] * 参见 swesor- 〔sororal〕Of, relating to, or resembling a sister; sisterly.姐妹（般）的：姐妹的、与姐妹有关的或类似姐妹的；姐妹的〔Haworth〕A village of northern England west-northwest of Bradford.
