单词 fantoosh
释义

fantooshadj.

Brit. /fanˈtuːʃ/, U.S. /fænˈtuʃ/, /fænˈtʊʃ/, Scottish English /fanˈtuʃ/
Forms: 1900s– fantoosh, 1900s– fantouche, 1900s– fantoush.
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French fantoche.
Etymology: < French (slang) fantoche (of a military uniform) that does not conform to the usual regulations, fantastical, eccentric (1919 or earlier) < fant- (in the adjectival phrase de fantaisie: see note) + -oche, suffix forming adjectives, of uncertain origin. Probably borrowed by Scottish soldiers in France during the First World War (1914–18).A connection with earlier fantysheeny adj. is unlikely. French de fantaisie is found from 1916 or earlier in uses parallel to those of fantoche ; 1874 or earlier in the more general sense ‘(of a thing, especially an article of clothing) that differs from the usual or regular type by virtue of its originality, novelty, or (sometimes) refinement’; < de de prep. + fantaisie fantasy n.
Scottish.
Fancy, showy, flashy; stylish, sophisticated; fashionable, exotic. Often used disparagingly, implying ostentation or pretentiousness.
