Eskimo词源中文解释

源于1580年代，来自丹麦语 Eskimo 或法语 Esquimaux（复数形式），两者都可能来自阿尔冈昆语中的一个词，例如阿贝纳基语 askimo（复数形式 askimoak），奥吉布瓦语 ashkimeq，传统上被认为字面意思是“生肉食者”，源于原始阿尔冈昆语 *ask- “生的”+ *-imo “吃”。20世纪80年代该地区的语言学研究表明，虽然这种说法在当地广泛认可，但可能不准确或不完整，这个词可能意味着“雪鞋网制造者”，但这种说法存在语音上的困难。参见 Innuit。

作为语言的用法始于1819年。作为形容词的用法始于1744年。Eskimo pie“巧克力冰淇淋棒”于1922年推出，最初是一种热潮，导致纽约市场上可可豆价格在三个月内上涨了50% [F.L. Allen，“Only Yesterday”，1931]。

It is said that the reason the "Eskimo Pie" campaign was not successful in Spanish-speaking countries is because in Spanish the word "pie" means "foot." South Americans do not care to eat Eskimos' feet. ["Pitfalls of Foreign Advertising," Business, December 1922]

据说“Eskimo Pie”广告在西班牙语国家没有成功的原因是因为在西班牙语中，“pie”一词的意思是“脚”。南美人不想吃爱斯基摩人的脚。[“Pitfalls of Foreign Advertising”，商业，1922年12月]

Eskimo词源英文解释

earlier Esquimawes, plural, probably borrowed from Spanish esquimaos, borrowed from Innu-aimun (Algonquian language of Quebec and Labrador), attested in the 17th century as aiachkimeȣ-, aiachtchimeȣ- "Micmac," in the 20th century as ayassime·w (phonemicized) "Micmac, Inuk," perhaps literally, "snowshoe-netter"; later Eskimo probably borrowed from French Esquimau, borrowed from Innu-aimun Note: The history of the appellation Eskimo is in its early stages murky, in its later stages a cause of controversy. Its first attestation in any language is in English, as Esquimawes in Richard hakluyt's Discourse of Western Planting (1584), a secret report sent to Queen Elizabeth forcefully advocating English colonization of North America, which was not printed until 1877. The ethnic identity of Hakluyt's "Esquimawes of the Grande Bay [the waters west of the Strait of Belle Isle]" is impossible to determine from his notice. There is little doubt, though, that his source for the word was Spanish, as fishermen and whalers from the Spanish Basque Provinces frequented the Strait of Belle Isle from about 1540. The Spanish word is directly attested in the Compendio historial de …Guipúzcoa (1625) by the Basque historian Lope Martínez de Isasti, who clearly distinguishes between the esquimaos, who attacked the whalers with bow and arrow, and the montañeses (presumably the Montagnais/Innu people of eastern Canada), with whom the whalers had friendly relations. The designation first appears in French as Esquimaux on a map by Samuel de champlain (1632), placed on the north shore of "La grande baye." The source of the Spanish and French words is likely a word in the Algonquian language of the Innu, recorded variably in the seventeenth century as aiachkimeȣ- (phonemically a·yaskyime·w) and aiachtchimeȣ- (a·yasčime·w), that designates not the Inuit but rather the Micmac, an Eastern Algonquian-speaking people who lived to the south of the Innu. In modern Innu-aimun (the language of the Innu), however, ayassime·w is used along the western shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence to refer to the Micmac, but further east and along the Labrador coast to refer to the Inuit. The literal meaning of ayassime·w and its cognates in other Algonquian languages has traditionally been taken to be "eaters of raw flesh" (according to the 1933 supplement to the Oxford English Dictionary, from "Proto-Algonquian *ašk- raw, *-imo eat"). This hypothesis was effectively refuted by José Mailhot ("L'étymologie de «Esquimau» revue et corrigée," Études Inuit Studies, vol. 2, no. 2 [1978], pp. 59-69); she proposes that the original meaning was "speaker of an alien language"—hence the name could be applied to either Inuktitut or Micmac, which, though Algonquian, was not comprehensible to the Innu. The American linguist Ives Goddard rejects her explanation and sees ayassime·w as a reduplicated form of assime·w "she nets a snowshoe," whence, as an agentive derivative, "snowshoe-netter" (Handbook of North American Indians, vol. 5, Arctic [Washington, 1984], pp. 5-6).

The first known use of Eskimo was in 1584
