单词 mazame
释义

mazamen.

Brit. /məˈzɑːmeɪ/, /məˈzeɪm/, U.S. /məˈzɑˌmeɪ/, /məˈzeɪm/
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French mazame.
Etymology: < French mazame (1764 in Buffon) < Nahuatl maçame (recorded a1587 by Francisco Hernandez, as is temamaçame (compare quot. 1775)), plural of maçatl deer. Compare Mexican Spanish mazate, from the singular form of the Nahuatl word. N.E.D. (1906) follows e.g. Cent. Dict. in giving the anglicized pronunciation (măzēi·m) /məˈzeɪm/ (which is now rare or obsolete), but notes that ‘the original word is’ (masā·me) /maˈsɑːme/. Compare mazama n.
Now rare.
Any of various American deer and other ruminants, including the pronghorn, Antilocapra americana. Cf. mazama n. 1.
