单词 crame
释义

cramen.1

Brit. /kreɪm/, U.S. /kreɪm/, Scottish English /krem/
Forms: Middle English– crame; also 1500s craym, creame, 1700s creme, 1800s craim, cream, kraim, krame.
Etymology: Adopted in 15th cent. Scots from Middle Dutch (Flemish), or Middle Low German krâme, kraeme, krâm, kraem, in modern Dutch kraam, Low German kraam, krâm, tent, booth, stall, stock of wares. A word common to continental West Germanic: compare Old Frisian, East Frisian krâm (West Frisian kream, Wangeroog krôm); Old High German chram, cram (masculine), Middle High German krâm (masculine), krâme (feminine), German krâm (masculine) dialect, krame (masculine, feminine). The original sense is shown by Old High German to be ‘tent-covering, awning’. In the transferred sense ‘wares, merchandise, toys’ the word went with German traders to the north (Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish, Danish kram n.), and into Slavonic and Lithuanian (Polish kram, Bohemian krâm, Illyrian krama, Lithuanian krômas), and probably entered Scotland in a similar way. There is no trace of it in Gothic, or in Old English.
Scottish.
1. A booth or stall where goods are sold in a market or fair. (In common use in Scottish.)
