15世纪中期,“钓鱼线的配重”,是 plumb(v.)的动名词。在早期现代英语中,“铅的铸造和加工艺术”。特指“用于通过建筑物传送水的水和排水管道及其他设备”的含义记录于1875年,美国英语。
THE apparatus by which the water from a reservoir is carried about over a building and delivered at points convenient for use, is called by the general name of plumbing. The word "plumbing" means lead-work; and it is used to signify this water apparatus of a house because the pipes of which it largely consists are usually made of lead. [Edward Abbott, "Long Look House: A Book for Boys and Girls," Boston, 1877]
从水库中运输水并在方便使用的地方提供的设备,被称为 plumbing。单词“plumbing”意味着铅工作; 因为它通常由铅制成的管道大量组成,所以它被用来表示房屋的这种水设备。[爱德华·艾伯特(Edward Abbott),《长时间观察房子:男孩和女孩的书》,波士顿,1877年]
“铅工作”的另一种说法 plumbery(也指“进行铅工作的建筑物”)也是15世纪中期的。俚语意义上的“一个人的生殖器官”可追溯至1975年。
