名詞
Tweedle-dee (複数形 Tweedle-dees)
- One of a pair (the other of the pair being Tweedle-dum) of nominally different (often: but practically identical) things.
- 1773, “Epigram on the Feuds between Handel and Bononcini”, in Miscellaneous Poems, Manchester: J. Harrop, pp 343–44:
- 1907, The Medical world, volume 25, page 216:
- How can we get the tweedle-dums and the tweedle-dees together for united action in the interests of the masses of the people?
- 1989, Jon Barwise, The Situation in Logic, page 189:
- Suppose we have any axiom of the form: (2) For every Tweedledee there is a Tweedledum R-related to it. Axioms of the form (2) cut two ways. They can be construed as putting a limit on the Tweedledees: only those exist for which there is an R-related Tweedledum. On the other hand, they can be seen as postulating the existence of a rich collection of Tweedledums. There are so many of them that there is at least one R-related to every single Tweedledee.
