1. dip => dope. 所以dope的本义是指半液体状的黏稠物、胶状物,后来由于半液体状的黏稠的鸦片配制品的出现,而引申为毒品、吸毒等含义,这类鸦片就是蘸着吸食的。
2. 傻瓜、笨蛋的含义也许就是源于吸食毒品后的状态引申出来的。
3. 谐音“毒品、鸦片”。
dope 大麻,毒品

来自dip, 浸。原义为沙司,汤汁,后用在口语指大麻。

dope
dope: [19] Dope originated in the USA, where it was borrowed from Dutch doop ‘sauce’. This was a derivative of the verb doopen ‘dip’, which is related to English dip. It was at first used as a general colloquialism for any thick semi-liquid preparation, whether used as a food or, for example, as a lubricant, but during the 19th century some specific strands began to emerge: notably ‘drug’, and in particular ‘opium’, and ‘varnish painted on the fabric of an aircraft’.

The effects of the former led to its use in the sense ‘fool’, and to the coinage of the adjective dopey, first recorded in the 1890s. The sense ‘information’ dates from around 1900.

=> deep, dip
dope (n.)
1807, American English, "sauce, gravy, thick liquid," from Dutch doop "thick dipping sauce," from doopen "to dip" (see dip (v.)). Extension to "drug" is 1889, from practice of smoking semi-liquid opium preparation. Meaning "foolish, stupid person" is older (1851) and may have a sense of "thick-headed." Sense of "inside information" (1901) may come from knowing before the race which horse had been drugged to influence performance. Dope-fiend is attested from 1896.
