<注釋>Complected has a long history in American folk speech, showing up, for example, in 80' in the journals of the Lewis and Clark Expedition: .[The Indians] are . . . reather lighter complected . . . than the Indians of the Missouri. (Meriwether Lewis).Complected has long been treated as a dialectal term in dictionaries, but it actually should be regarded as informal Standard English,since its wide distribution (including New England, the Midwest, the South, and elsewhere)disqualifies it as a true regionalism.Its use by one western Texas informant quoted inDARE extends its semantic domain beyond skin color to general appearance: .a fat-complected man.. Complected 在美國民間傳說中有一段很長的歷史, 例如,80'年,在路易斯和克拉克的探險旅行中: . …相對密蘇里印第安人的臉色白皙一些. (瑪麗維瑟爾·路易斯)。Complected 這個詞長期以來在字典中一直被當作方言看待, 但是它實際上應該算作非正式標準英文,它的使用是如此廣泛(包括新英格蘭、中西部、南方和其它地區),所以它不是地區性的。據一位德克薩斯州西部的提供訊息者在DARE 中所引用的用法已延伸了其語義上的範圍,即從專指膚色到指整體形象: .一個肥胖男人. 注釋>
