chowder的词源
英文词源
- chowder
- chowder: [18] Chowder, a North American seafood soup, probably takes its name from the pot in which it was originally cooked – French chaudière ‘stew pot’. This came from late Latin caldāria ‘pot’, a descendant of Latin calidārium ‘hot bath’ (which lies behind English cauldron); this in turn was a derivative of the adjective calidus ‘warm’.
=> calorie, cauldron - chowder (n.)
- 1751, American English, apparently named for the pot it was cooked in: French chaudière "a pot" (12c.), from Late Latin caldaria (see caldron). The word and the practice introduced in Newfoundland by Breton fishermen, and spreading thence to New England.
CHOWDER. A favorite dish in New England, made of fish, pork, onions, and biscuit stewed together. Cider and champagne are sometimes added.
