单词 grog
释义

grogn.

Brit. /ɡrɒɡ/, U.S. /ɡrɑɡ/
Forms: Also 1700s grogg.
Etymology: Said to be short for grogram n., and to have been applied first as a personal nickname to Admiral Vernon, from the fact of his wearing a grogram cloak, and afterwards transferred to the mixture which he ordered to be served out instead of neat spirit. Vernon's order, dated Aug. 1740, is still extant. The statement that he wore a grogram cloak, and was thence nicknamed ‘Old Grog’, first appears explicitly in Grose Dict. Vulgar Tongue 1796, but derives some support from Trotter's allusion in quot. 1781 at sense 1a.
