crisp sense 2
15世纪晚期, kremelen,意为“将...弄碎成小块”(及物动词),源自古英语 *crymelan,被认为是 gecrymman 的频率形式,意为“将...弄碎成碎屑”,源自 cruma(参见 crumb)。不及物动词的意思“破碎成小块”始于1570年代。
-b- 来自16世纪,可能是根据 crumb(在那里它也是一个非词源的插入)或像 humble 这样的法语衍生词的类比。相关词汇: Crumbled; crumbling。古英语 gecrymman 产生了中古英语 crimen “将...弄碎成碎屑”(及物动词)。
作为名词,从1570年代开始意为“碎片”,从1947年开始在英国烹饪中作为一道带有碎屑覆盖的甜点。 “这种技术本身似乎是二战时期应急烹饪的产物”[Ayto,“Diner's Dictionary”]。
