Shakesphere quote
사느냐 죽느냐 그것이 문제로다
뜻: 낡고 진부하다.
새로운 것이 없는 상태를 의미합니다.
고리타분(古りた粉):
• 예문: “그의 생각은 너무 고리타분해서 시대에 뒤떨어져 보인다.”
• 뜻: 개성이나 독창성이 결여됬다.
개성없는 주장이나 이론을 의미할 수 있습니다.
몰개성설(沒個性說):
“몰개성”은 개성이 없거나 평범하다는 뜻이며, “-설”은 어떤 주장이나 견해를 나타냅니다.
• 예문: “모든 사람이 같은 방식으로 살아야 한다는 몰개성설은 창의성을 억압한다.”
이 두 단어가 결합되면 “낡고 진부하며 개성이 없는 주장”이라는 뜻이 됩니다. 즉, 시대에 뒤떨어지고 특별한 특징 없이 획일적인 사고방식을 강조하는 견해를 비판적으로 표현할 때 사용할 수 있는 말입니다.
