From Late Middle English notoryous, from Medieval Latin nōtōrius (“evident, known; famous, well-known; infamous”), from Latin nōtus (“known, recognized; familiar, widely known; famous, well-known; infamous”) + -tōrius (suffix forming adjectives).[1] Nōtus is the perfect passive participle of nōscō (“to become acquainted with or learn about (something); (まれに) to be familiar with, recognize”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ǵneh₃- (“to know; to recognize”).
notorious (comparative more notorious, superlative most notorious)
The word notorious originally had a neutral or positive connotation (sharing a Latin root with the words notable かつ noteworthy) but is now usually associated with negative characteristics. The word is still used to describe positive characteristics (“a notorious perfectionist” または “notorious for his generosity”) but this use is now considered playful or ironic as a result of the word’s negative connotations.[2]
