<注釋>.Oh yes, Mater, we had a posh time of it down there..So inPunch for September 25, 98, do we find the first recorded instance of that mysterious wordposh, meaning .smart and fashionable,.although in a 903 book by P.G. Wodehouse,Tales of St. Austin`s, there is a mention of a waistcoat that was .push.. The latter may be a different word,but in either case the dates of occurrence are importantbecause they are part of the objection to derivingposh from the initials of .Port Out, Starboard Home.. This was the cooler, and thus more expensive, side of ships traveling between England and India in the mid-9th century,and the acronymPOSH was supposedly stamped on the tickets of first-class passengers traveling on that side of ships owned by the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company. No evidence is definitely known to exist for this theory, however.TheOxford English Dictionary Supplement may have found a possible source or sources for posh. Another wordposh was 9th- and early 20th-century British slang for .money,. specifically .a halfpenny, cash of small value..This word is borrowed from the common Romany wordpôôh, .half,. which was used in combinations such aspôôhera, .halfpenny.. Posh, also meaning .a dandy,. is recorded in two dictionaries of slang published in 890 and 902,although this particularposh may be still another word. This word or these words, however, are much more likely to be the source ofposh than .Port Out, Starboard Home,. although the latter source certainly has caught the public`s etymological fancy.
.哦是的，媽媽，我們在那里過著豪華的生活。.因此在98年9月25日的punch 上， 我們看到了那個神秘單詞posh 的首次記錄， 意為.豪華的，時髦的，.雖然早在903年P(guān)·G·伍德豪斯的名為圣·奧斯汀傳說 的作品中就提及了意為.push.的馬夾這個詞。 后者也可能是另外一個不同的詞，但在任何一種情況下兩者被使用的時間都很重要，因為它們都反對posh 這個詞源于.Port Out，Starboard Home。. 這是意指9世紀中期往來于英格蘭及印度的船只中較涼爽、因而票價也就較為昂貴的一側(cè)，而POSH 這個首字縮拼詞據(jù)說就印在半島——東方蒸汽船航運公司所擁有的船只上較為涼爽的一側(cè)頭等艙的票上。 然而對于這一說法并沒有確鑿的證據(jù)來加以證明。牛津英語詞典增補本 也許為 posh 找到了一個或多個可能的詞源。 另一個詞posh 則是9世紀和20世紀初英國人用來表示.錢.的俚語， 尤指.半便士，小面值錢幣。.這個詞源于吉卜賽常用詞pô歨 ，意為.一半.， 用在諸如意為.半便士.的復(fù)合詞pô歨era 中。 Posh 也有.花花公子.之意， 這一用法記錄于890年及902年出版的兩本俚語詞典中，盡管這個特有的posh 也有可能是另一個詞。 然而這個詞及上文提到的那些詞比.Port Out，Starboard Home.更有可能是posh 這個詞的詞源， 雖然后者早被人們確認為這個詞的詞源
