tapinage的词源解释,tapinage来源

tapinage(n.)

"disguise, place of concealment, act of lurking" (obsolete), c. 1300, from Old French tapinage, from tapir "hide, skulk," a word of unknown origin. English also had tappish (v.) "to hide, take cover, lurk in a covert place," early 14c. (tapisen), from the present-participle stem of Old French tapir, which is said by the earlier French etymologists (Diez, Littré) to be from the same Germanic source as taper.
