俚语 statuate
释义

statuate

To establish something, put something into order, or to set up something (new).
A neologism as a result of a common error when translating from Hungarian to English, creating a quasi-literal translation of the Hungarian word "statuál" (from the Latin "statuere" or "statutum", meaning 'to set up, to raise, to order, to judge').
Commonly used in the phrase "to statuate an example" ("példát statuál", meaning "make an example of").
"Was he late again?"
"Yes. I think it's time we statuated some new rules."

"Why did you include this?"
"To statuate an example. If people can add stupid shit like "himbo" to the dictionary, without ever bothering to look up that there was a proper term for a male bimbo, then so can I!"
