单词 patache
释义

patachen.

Brit. /paˈtɑːʃ/, U.S. /pæˈtɑʃ/
Forms:

α. 1500s– patache, 1600s pitache, 1600s–1700s pattache, 1600s–1700s petach, 1600s–1800s patach.

β. 1500s patacheo, 1500s pataxo, 1500s–1800s patacho.

Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from Spanish. Partly a borrowing from French. Partly a borrowing from Occitan. Etymons: Spanish patache; French patache; Occitan patacha.
Etymology: < Spanish patache (1553; also as patage (1526), patax (1527 or earlier), pataje (1537), etc.), of uncertain origin. Compare Middle French, French patache (1566 as patence ), Catalan pataxa (16th cent.), patatxo (1646), Portuguese patacho (1563 as patax , petaxo ), Dutch †pataxo (1596 in the source translated in quot. 1598 at sense 1), patas (1671; also as diminutive patasje (1631–4)). Compare also Arabic baṭāš type of two-masted ship (perhaps < baṭṭāš rapid, fast), which has been proposed as the possible origin of the word in Romance languages, although this raises certain difficulties; comparison has also been made between the Arabic word and Spanish albatoza, showing Arabic prefixed article (late 15th cent.).The modern pronunciation is apparently after French; it is unclear what the pronunciation was in early use. In β. forms probably after Portuguese. In sense 2 < French patache (1793 in this sense) and Occitan patacha, petacha (compare quot. 2001 at sense 1).
