中文詞源

Oscar 奧斯卡

美國電影獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)Academy Awards的俗稱，該獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)評選始于1928年。后據(jù)說是因?yàn)樵摢?jiǎng)項(xiàng)的評選秘書Margaret Herrick無意中說這個(gè)小金人看起來像他的叔叔Oscar,其它人覺得這個(gè)名字更接地氣，于是就作為該獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)的非官方名稱。該名字字面意思為“神之予”，來自os,神，詞源同Asgard,gar,矛，詞源同garlic.

英文詞源

Oscar: Oscar: [20] The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in Hollywood has been awarding these golden statuettes annually since 1928, but at first they were not called Oscars. That name is said to have come about in 1931, when Margaret Herrick, a former secretary of the Academy, reputedly remarked that the Art Deco figurine reminded her of her ‘Uncle Oscar’ (Oscar Pierce, an American wheat and fruit grower). The name evidently struck a chord, and has been used ever since.
Oscar: masc. proper name, Old English Osgar "god's spear," from gar "spear" (see gar) + os "god" (only in personal names); see Asgard.

The statuette awarded for excellence in film acting, directing, etc., given annually since, 1928, first so called 1936. The name is said to have sprung from a 1931 remark by Margaret Herrick, secretary at Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, on seeing the statuette: "He reminds me of my Uncle Oscar." Thus the award would be named for Oscar Pierce, U.S. wheat farmer and fruit grower.
