单词 hoast
释义

hoastn.

/həʊst/
Forms: [Old English hwósta], Middle English–1800s host, Middle English, 1800s dialect hoost, (1500s–1800s hoste, hoist), 1600s– hoast, ( haust, 1800s hoarst).
Etymology: The Old English hwósta is not known to have survived in Middle English; the extant northern word (from 14th cent.) was apparently the cognate Old Norse hóste cough = Old Low German *hôsto (Middle Low German hôste, Middle Dutch hoeste, hoest, Low German hoost, hôst, Dutch hoest), Old High German huosto (Middle High German huoste, German husten) < Old Germanic *hwôston-, < a root *hwôs- (whence Old English hwésan < *hwôsjan to wheeze), pre-Germanic *kwōs-, kās-; compare Sanskrit kās to cough. It is possible that Old English hwósta may have survived dialectally; some writers refer to a dialect form, whoost, which would be its representative; and this, as in who, whoop, might become hoost, whence modern Shropshire 'oost.
Chiefly northern dialect.
A cough. In some English dialects used only of cattle.

Forms: [Old English hwóstan], Middle English–1800s host, (1500s hoyst, 1800s hoist), 1700s– hoast, (dialect huist).
