turf词源中文解释
古英语 turf， tyrf “土壤和草皮的块状物，草地表面”，也指“草地表面”，源自原始日耳曼语 *turfa-（源头还包括古挪威语 torf，丹麦语 tørv，古弗里西亚语 turf，古高地德语 zurba，德语 Torf），源自印欧语根 *drebh- “卷曲，压缩”（源头还包括梵语 darbhah “草丛”）。
尤指“赛马场”，因此 the turf 指“赛马专业”（1755年）。法语 tourbe “草皮”是一个日耳曼语借词。古英语的复数与单数相同，但在中古英语中，有时使用 turves。黑话中“帮派宣称的领土”一词始见于1953年的纽约布鲁克林； 此前，它在盲流用语中指“街道，人行道”（20世纪30年代），在流浪汉用语中始见于1899年，此前指“妓女的工作和场所”（1860年）。Turf war 的记录始于1962年。
