单词 dingle
释义

dinglen.

Brit. /ˈdɪŋɡl/, U.S. /ˈdɪŋɡ(ə)l/
Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: dung n.2, -el suffix1.
Etymology: Origin uncertain. Perhaps < dung n.2 (compare the reference to hell in quot. c1300 at that entry) + -el suffix1.If this etymology is correct, the form of the word would suggest i-mutation of the first element (perhaps caused by the suffix, but compare also the discussion at dung n.2); however, this interpretation poses phonological problems, as illustrated by the early attestation in Sawles Warde (see quot. c1225 at sense 1), which survives in a western manuscript where i is not the expected reflex of the i-mutation of u . Compare also dimble n. and discussion at that entry. Use in names. Recorded in place names (apparently in sense 2) from at least the 13th cent., as Dingyll, Lancashire (1246; now Dingle, Liverpool), la Dingle, Worcestershire (1275, now lost), and is relatively frequent as an element in field names recorded from the 19th cent. It has also been suggested that the earlier name of Dinglei, Northamptonshire (1086; now Dingley) shows dingle as its first element, but this identification is uncertain and disputed. Early currency of the noun is also probably implied by use in surnames, although some of these may alternatively refer to specific place names: e.g. Richard de Dingyll, (1246; also as Richard Dingyl in the same source), Hugh de la Dingle (1275), John ate Dyngle (1299), Walt. atte Dyngle (1327).
1. A deep place; an abyss. Apparently only in sea dingle. rare (archaic or literary in later use).In quot. c1225 translating use of post-classical Latin abyssus (abyss n.) in Psalm 36:6 (35:7 in the Vulgate) in reference to the depths of the sea, perhaps choosing dingle for alliteration. Quots. c1931 and 1967 represent isolated later uses by authors familiar with quot. c1225, with Auden consciously echoing the whole line and Tolkien using sea dingle in the same sense but without direct allusion.

2. A small, deep valley or hollow; a dell; esp. one that is shaded or surrounded by trees. Also (chiefly English regional (northern)): a narrow, steep-sided ravine between hills; a clough (clough n. 1).Use specifically in reference to a valley or hollow which is shaded or surrounded by trees is common in poetic and literary contexts, perhaps influenced by Milton (see quot. 1637).
