摘要
在我国,蜻蜓有多种名称,目前仍在使用的有蜻蜓、蜻蛉、水虿、、豆娘等。它们当中,有些是源自蜻蜓类昆虫的体色,如“蜻、”;有些是由蜻蜓的身体形状而来,如“蜓、蛉、水虿”。而“豆娘”出现最晚,应用时间也最短。中文之“豆娘”与日文中的“豆娘”关系甚为复杂,目前尚无定论。
Various common names have been created for the odonatan insects in Chinese. Among them, several are used at present, Qing-Ting, Qing-Ling (for dragonflies), Cong, Dou-Niang (for damselflies), Shui-Cai (odonatan naiads). The etymology of them show that they come from the color or shape of dragonflies or damselflies, but maybe the "Dou-Niang" was used in Japanese firstly, and we followed it. This foreign appellation appeared in modem Chinese scientific literatures only. At present, the relation of "Dou-Niang" in Chinese and it in Japanese is too complex for scholars to verdict about it.
