"ずぼん" meaning in All languages combined

See ずぼん on Wiktionary

Adverb [Japanese]

IPA: [d͡zɨᵝbõ̞ɴ] Forms: zubon [romanization]
Etymology: Onomatopoeia. The zu portion indicates something rubbing or sliding (compare verb 擦る suru, “to rub or slide”), and the bon portion indicates something bumping to a stop or softly popping into or out of place. This term appears in print in 1860, raising the possibility that the onomatopoeia sense arose from the borrowed noun ズボン (“trousers”) and the action of putting on a pair of trousers. The initial zu portion does not historically refer to rubbing or sliding, but instead more commonly carries negative connotations of abnormal or sloppy. Alternatively, this is a colloquial term, and it may have been a dialect term, and thus it might be older than its history in print. Head templates: {{ja-pos|adverb}} ずぼん • (zubon)
