单词 cart
释义

cartn.

Brit. /kɑːt/, U.S. /kɑrt/
Forms: Middle English–1600s carte, (Middle English karte, Middle English kart), 1500s ( charte), Scottish cairt, Middle English– cart.
Etymology: Old English, had cræt neuter, plural cratu , apparently related to Dutch krat neuter ‘hind part of a cart’ (which is, however, only modern Dutch and suspected to be of recent adoption). Some compare Old High German cratto , crezzo , masculine, Middle High German kratte , kretze (masculine and feminine) basket, hamper, panier, modern German dialect krätze (feminine), basket (compare crate n.1), and suppose that Old English cræt was properly a cart of basketwork, but of this there is no actual evidence. Old Norse had kart-r masculine ‘cart’, generally considered to be cognate with the Old English word; and since the Middle English was always cart(e, and never crat, its direct source appears to have been the Old Norse, rather than the Old English word. If Middle English cart(e had merely arisen by metathesis of r from Old English cræt, we should expect some overlapping of forms as in the case of brid, bird; one may note, however, that Old English cræt-wǽn exists in modern Welsh as cartwen. Cart has entered from English into most of the Celtic languages; but is there palpably a foreign word.
