释义 | Definition of rokelay in English:rokelaynoun ˈrəʊkli Scottish historical
OriginEarly 18th century; earliest use found in Bill. Perhaps from the name of Antoine-Gaston, Duc deRoquelaure, although the use of the word so early in the Duke's lifetime may be problematic, the vowel quantity of the early examples is unclear, and the ending differs significantly from that of the surname. Compare French roquelaure, although this is first recorded later and apparently only as the name of a man's garment. Definition of rokelay in US English:rokelaynounˈrəʊkli Scottish historical
