sherbet的词源
英文词源
- sherbet
- sherbet: [17] Like syrup, sherbet goes back ultimately to the Arabic verb shariba ‘drink’, whose initial /shr/ sound was originally imitative of the sound of noisy drinking or slurping. From it was derived the noun sharbah, whose plural sharbāt passed into Turkish as sherbet or shorbet. English took over the former as sherbet, and originally used it for a ‘cooling Middle Eastern drink, made with melted snow’. Its modern application, to a powder for making sweet fizzy drinks (or just for eating), did not emerge until the mid-19th century. Italian adopted shorbet as sorbetto, which reached English via French as sorbet [16].
=> sorbet, syrup - sherbet (n.)
- c. 1600, zerbet, "drink made from diluted fruit juice and sugar," and cooled with fresh snow when possible, from Turkish serbet, from Persian sharbat, from Arabic sharba(t) "a drink," from shariba "he drank." Formerly also sherbert. Related to syrup, and compare sorbet.
