husky(adj.)
husky(n.)
"爱斯基摩狗",1852年,加拿大英语,早期(1830年)hoskey "一个爱斯基摩人",可能是 Ehuskemay(1743年)的缩写变体,本身是 Eskimo 的变体。
The moment any vessel is noticed steering for these islands [Whalefish Islands], the Esquimaux, or "Huskies,"* as the Danes customarily term them, come off in sufficient numbers to satisfy you that you are near the haunts of uncivilized men, and will afford sufficient information to guide any stranger to his anchorage. *"Husky" is their own term. I recollect the chorus to a song at Kamtchatka was "Husky, Husky." ["Last of the Arctic Voyages," London, 1855]
一旦注意到任何船只驶向这些岛屿[鲸鱼岛],爱斯基摩人或“哈斯基”*,正如丹麦人通常称呼他们的那样,就会出现足够数量的人来满足你,让你知道你已经接近未开化的人的栖息地,并提供足够的信息来指引任何陌生人到达锚地。*“Husky”是他们自己的术语。我记得在堪察加半岛的一首歌的合唱是“Husky,Husky”。["极地之旅的最后一站",伦敦,1855年]
该词起源时间:1852年
