词组 mischievous
释义 mischievous
      A pronunciation \\\\mis-'chē-vē-ǝs\\\\, and consequent spelling mischievious, is of long standing: evidence for this spelling goes back to the 16th century. Our pronunciation files contain modern attestations ranging from dialect speakers of the islands of the Chesapeake Bay to Herbert Hoover. The pronunciation and spelling must be considered nonstandard but are in a somewhat special category, as they may be used deliberately and humorously, not to make fun of someone else's speech, but because the folksy sound and the echo from devious often add an appropriate flavor to the semantics of the word. See also grievous, grievously.
