<注釋>The wordorgy has become connected in the minds of many of us with unrestrained sexual activity, but its origins are much less licentious.We can trace the word as far back as the Indo-European rootwerg-, meaning .to do.and the source of our wordwork. Greekorgia, .secret rites, worship,. also comes from the rootwerg-, by way of the form.worg-. The Greek word was used with reference to the worship and the ritespracticed in the worship of various deities,such as Orpheus and Dionysus.The word in Greek did not denote sexual activity,although this was a part of some of the various rites.The rites of Dionysus, for example, included only music, dancing, drinking, and the eating of animal sacrifices.Having passed through Latin and Old French into Englishthe wordorgy is first recorded in English with reference to the secret rites of the Greek and Roman religions in 589. It is interesting to note that the word is first recorded with its modern sense in 8th-century English and perhaps in 7th-century French.Whether this speaks to a greater licentiousness in society or not must be left to the historian,but certainly the religious nature of the word has gone into eclipse.
單詞orgy 已經(jīng)以不加節(jié)制的性行為的概念深植于我們?cè)S多人的頭腦之中， 但它的原意卻并非是很放蕩的。我們可以追溯該詞到印歐的詞根werg- 當(dāng)中， 意思是.做.，并且是我們work 一詞的來(lái)源。 希臘語(yǔ)orgia, .秘密儀式，崇拜.， 也來(lái)源于詞根werg-， 形式為worg- 。 希臘語(yǔ)中用其指崇拜以及一些儀式，這些儀式用于表達(dá)對(duì)各神明的崇拜，比如俄耳甫斯和狄俄尼索斯。該詞在希臘語(yǔ)中并不是表示性行為，盡管性行為也是各種儀式中的一個(gè)部分。例如，狄俄尼索斯的儀式中僅僅包括音樂(lè)、舞蹈、飲酒和吃祭祀動(dòng)物。從拉丁語(yǔ)和古法語(yǔ)轉(zhuǎn)到英語(yǔ)，orgy 這一詞在589年首次在英文有記載表示希臘和羅馬秘密宗教儀式含義。 有趣的是，該詞早在8世紀(jì)也許7世紀(jì)就已有其現(xiàn)代意義的首次記載了。不論它是不是指社會(huì)中的一種大型的狂歡節(jié)（這是歷史學(xué)家的事了），有一點(diǎn)是非常明確的，那就是這個(gè)詞的宗教本質(zhì)已經(jīng)逐漸消失了
