英文詞源
- spat
- spat: English has three words spat (not counting the past form of spit). The oldest, ‘young of an oyster or similar shellfish’ [17], comes from Anglo-Norman spat, but the origins of that are unknown. Spat ‘shoe covering’ [19] is short for the earlier spatterdash [17]. This was a compound formed from spatter [16] (a word based ultimately on the sound of spattering) and dash (used here in the now archaic sense ‘splash violently’). Spat ‘tiff’ [19] originated in the USA, but its ancestry is not known.
- spat (n.1)
- "petty quarrel," 1804, American English, of unknown origin; perhaps somehow imitative (compare spat "smack, slap," attested from 1823).
- spat (n.2)
- "short gaiter covering the ankle" (usually only in plural, spats), 1779, shortening of spatterdash "long gaiter to keep trousers or stockings from being spattered with mud" (1680s), from spatter and dash (v.).
- spat (n.3)
- "spawn of a shellfish," especially "spawn of an oyster," also "a young oyster," 1660s, of unknown origin, perhaps from the past tense of spit (v.1).
