‘BeetHe did not begin as a word about homelessness, alcohol, and benches under the store. At the starting point, there was a Russian “жулик” [slulik], meaning “swindler”, “swindler”, “swindler”.
The Polish first went to the “Zublik” and then formed a thickening “slagIt’s okay. ” So the tongue shortened the form, sharpened the sound, and gave it heavier meanings.
In the Russian "жулик" is primarily individual who cheats, cheats, pulls. The household of this word is expanded: we have “жульё”, that is collectively “slull”, “жульничать” — “swindle”, “swindle”, and “жульничество”, that is, “swindle” or “split”.
The older Slavic lead appears deeper. The Russian ‘жулить’ has been combined with the meanings of the kind ‘cut’, ‘cut’, ‘paint’, ‘cut’. Fasmer states that in the Russian jargon, ‘жулик’ besides meant ‘school of the criminal’ and ‘small sharp knife’, with the importance of the tool being original. From cutting and ripping distant close to the man who will “take” money from someone, that is, he will pluck it and deceive it.
In the Southwest, the importance shifted. ‘Zulik’ and ‘slag“ could have meant hooligans, bullies, or petty criminals. Today, the “jullard” most frequently means colloquially and contemptuously: a man of social margin, associated with sloppy appearance, deficiency of constant business and abuse of alcohol.
A change is interesting. In a single number we have: “slag‘, ‘Beetle‘, ‘gumIt’s okay. ” In the plural complement, 2 forms are correct: ‘slags’ and ‘BeetsIt’s okay. ” “ There is no breechor “no BeetsIt’s okay. ”
There is besides a “sniffling” — individual clever, suspicious, prone to deception.
