noun /UM-brij/ [ˈʌmbrɪdʒ]

What It Means

Umbrage is a formal word that usually refers to a feeling of being offended by what someone has said or done. It is often used in the phrase "take umbrage."

UMBRAGE in Context

“The last time the Hawkeyes played on a Nov. 16 was 2002. The opponent was Minnesota. You of the Hawkeye ilk may recall it. It clinched an unbeaten Big Ten season and share of the league championship for Iowa. It was kind of a big deal. So big, in fact, that Hawkeye fans ripped down the goal posts of the now-gone Metrodome, and actually tried to get them through a revolving door.... The next time an Iowa fan takes umbrage at a Gopher fan about anything, remember that afternoon in Minneapolis.” — Mike Hlas, The Gazette (Cedar Rapids, Iowa), 9 Aug. 2022

It can be difficult to converse with someone who is ready to take umbrage at the most innocent remarks.

對無冒犯之意的評論而生氣的人是很難上前交流的。

Did You Know?

Umbrage is a word born in the shadows. Its ultimate source (and that of umbrella) is Latin umbra, meaning “shade, shadow,” and when it was first used in the 15th century it referred to exactly that. But figurative use followed relatively quickly. Shakespeare wrote of Hamlet that "his semblable is his mirror, and who else would trace him, his umbrage, nothing more,” and by the 17th century this meaning of “vague suggestion; hint,” had been joined by other uses, including the “feeling of resentment or offense” heard today in such sentences as “many took umbrage at the speaker’s tasteless jokes.” The word’s early literal use is not often encountered, though it does live on in literature: for example, in her 1849 novel, Charlotte Brontë describes how the titular Shirley would relax “at the foot of some tree of friendly umbrage.”

Umbrage 是一個在陰暗環境裡誕生的詞。 它的最終來源（以及umbrella的來源）是拉丁語 umbra，意思是“shade「陰影」，shadow「陰影」”，當它在 15 世紀首次使用時，就是指這個意思。 但是有象征性的意義使用相對較快。 莎士比亞在談到哈姆雷特時寫道：“his semblable is his mirror, and who else would trace him, his umbrage, nothing more,”，到了 17 世紀，“vague suggestion「含糊的暗示」；hint「暗示」”的含義已經有了其他用法，包括 今天聽到的“many took umbrage at the speaker’s tasteless jokes「怨恨或冒犯的感覺」”如“many took umbrage at the speaker’s tasteless jokes「許多對演講者的無味笑話感到憤怒的人」”之類的語句中。 這個詞的早期“陰影”含義用法并不常見，盡管它确實存在于文學作品中：例如，在夏洛特勃朗特 1849 年的小說中，描述了有名無實的雪莉如何“在一些友好的樹陰涼下”放松。
