bastardy
noun
- (限名词义项 1)
- Middle English : via Old French from medieval Latin bastardus, probably from bastum 'packsaddle'; compare with Old French fils de bast, literally 'packsaddle son' (i.e. the son of a mule driver who uses a packsaddle for a pillow and is gone by morning)
- In the past the word bastard was the standard term in both legal and non-legal use for ‘an illegitimate child’. Today, however, it has little importance as a legal term and is retained today in this older sense only as a term of abuse
