单词 sundae
释义

sundaen.

Brit. /ˈsʌndeɪ/, /ˈsʌndi/, U.S. /ˈsənˌdeɪ/
Forms:

α. 1800s sunday.

β. 1800s– sundae, 1900s sundi (rare), 1900s sundai (rare).

Origin: Probably a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymon: Sunday n.
Etymology: Probably < Sunday n., used as a postmodifier in Cherry Sunday (see 1892 at main sense), apparently in recognition of the fact that the dish was first served on that day of the week.Evidence suggests that the use of Sunday to designate an ice-cream dish of this kind originates with Chester C. Platt (1869–1934), proprietor of Platt and Colt's Pharmacy in Ithaca, New York, who is said to have served it to Unitarian pastor John M. Scott at his premises after the Sunday church service on 3 April 1892. A letter from a patent attorney dated 24 March 1894 shows that Platt sought advice on trademark protection for the use of ‘Sunday’ for ice-cream novelties a few days earlier. The motivation for the subsequent respelling of the word (see β. forms) is uncertain: it may reflect an attempt by other retailers to avoid a perceived breach of trademark; it may be a reaction to the religious associations of Sunday as a day of abstinence; or it may simply have been intended to be eye-catching.
Originally U.S.
A dish of ice cream with added ingredients such as fruit, nuts, syrup, and whipped cream, typically served in a glass and topped with a maraschino cherry. Chiefly with modifier specifying the principal flavouring or added ingredient.
