单词 coble
释义

coblen.1

/ˈkəʊb(ə)l/
Forms: Old English cuopl, Middle English kobil, cobyll, Middle English–1500s cobill, 1600s–1800s cobble, Middle English– coble.
Etymology: Old Northumbrian cuopl appears to have no Germanic cognates; compare Welsh ceubal, ceubol ferry-boat, skiff, lighter (probably < Old Welsh *caupol), Breton caubal, which Silvan Evans identifies with Latin caupulus, -ilus, described by Isidore ( Orig. xix. i. 25) as ‘lembus, navicula brevis, quæ alia appellatione dicitur et cymba et caupolus v.r. caupilus, -ulus’. The word may be native in Celtic, and may contain the root ceu-, cau- hollow. The Old Northumbrian form, if correct, is not the direct parent of the present.
1. Scottish. A short flat-bottomed rowing-boat used in salmon-fishing and for crossing rivers or lakes. [In south Scotl. often pronounced cowble /ˈkobl/.]
