单词 parbuckle
释义
par·buck·le (pärbŭkəl)

2. A sling for raising or lowering an object vertically.
tr.v. par·buck·led, par·buck·ling, par·buck·les
To raise or lower with such a sling.

[Alteration (influenced by BUCKLE) of Early Modern English parbunkel, probably a borrowing from a language of the North Sea region : par-, akin to Dutch paar and Danish and Norwegian par, pair (in reference to the paired loops of rope used to parbuckle barrels up an incline; ultimately from Latin pār, pair; see PAIR) + bunkel, perhaps meaning “loop” (of unknown origin).]
