1735年,指“居住在沼泽地区的人”,源自 swamp(n.)。1857年,美国英语中指“在沼泽或森林中清理木材道路的工人”; 1907年,指“餐厅或酒吧中的全能助手”。
The first known use of swamper was in 1775
1 During his tenure in the oil patch, Smith worked as a truck driver’s assistant, or swamper, for a rig-moving company.
2 If something were to happen to the captain, the swamper would be the one to radio for help and manage the situation until others arrived.
3 That comes from my roots of playing in clubs where sometimes the only person who was there was the swamper cleaning up the bar.
