dildoとは 意味・読み方・使い方

語源 1

Unclear; possibly an alteration of English English diddle; compare the use of dildo², like diddle, as an expressive nonsense syllable in often sexual songs. Compare the spelling dil doul, found in e.g. The Maids Complaint for want of a Dil Doul, a song in the library of Samuel Pepys. Unlikely to be related to Italian diletto (“delight”) or Latin dīlātō (“I open up, spread”), often cited etymologies.^[1]

Found since at least the 1500s, often in contexts where allusion is being made to the sexual sense (above).^[2] Possibly influenced by Middle English dildoun (“darling, pet”), early modern English dildin (“sweetheart”); compare Old Norse dilla (“to lull”), dillindo (“lullaby”).^[1]
