单词 garboil
释义

garboiln.

Brit. /ˈɡɑːbɔɪl/, U.S. /ˈɡɑrˌbɔɪl/
Forms: 1500s garbroyl, 1500s–1600s garboile, 1500s–1600s garboyl, 1500s–1800s garboyle, 1500s– garboil, 1600s grayboyle; also Scottish pre-1700 garbulle, 1900s– garbel.
Origin: Apparently a borrowing from French. Etymon: French garbouille.
Etymology: Apparently < Middle French garbouille confused mess, confusion, disorder (16th cent.), of uncertain and disputed origin. However, it is likely that this word and the related garboil v. have been associated with garble v. and garble n., and probably regarded as variants of these.Compare Italian garbuglio confused mess of things (a1470), confusion, disorder (a1498; 1488 as charbuglio; probably < the corresponding verb garbugliare (although this is first attested later: 16th cent.)), and also Spanish garbullo (a1582); the relationship of these with the French noun is uncertain.
Now rare.
Confusion, turmoil; disturbance, tumult; discord, controversy. Also: an instance or state of confusion, disturbance, discord, etc.; a disorderly or tumultuous event.
