greyhound词源中文解释
古英语 grighund（西撒克逊）， greghund（盎格鲁）“灰狗”，可能来自 grig- “母狗”，一个未知词源的词，+ hund “狗”（见 hound（n.））。
该名称中的第一个元素显然与颜色无关，因为大多数猎犬不是灰色的，但它的确切意义必须早期被遗忘了，因为在大众想象中它长期与颜色相关联。在一些中古英语形式中，它似乎已经符合了 Grew，一个古老的“希腊”单词（来自古法语 Griu）。该词的古诺尔斯形式保存在海亚尔蒂的联句中，这几乎引发了早期冰岛异教徒和基督徒之间的战争：
Vilkat goð geyja
grey þykkjumk Freyja
[translation "I will not blaspheme the gods,
but I think Freyja is a bitch"]
Vilkat goð geyja
grey þykkjumk Freyja
[翻译“我不会亵渎神明，
但我认为弗蕾亚是一只母狗”]
