单词 haggaday
释义

haggadayn.

Brit. /ˈhaɡədeɪ/, U.S. /ˈhæɡəˌdeɪ/
Forms: Middle English hafgoodday, Middle English hagaday, Middle English hagdyes (plural), Middle English haginday, Middle English hagonday, Middle English haguday, Middle English hauegodaies (plural), Middle English havegooday (probably modernized form), Middle English 1800s– hagoday, 1600s 1800s– haggaday, 1800s hagady, 1900s– haggady, 2000s– have-good-day.
Origin: Apparently formed within English, by conversion. Etymon: have good day at good day n. 1.
Etymology: Apparently < have good day at good day n. 1, although if so the semantic motivation is unclear.The -n- in the forms haginday and hagonday is perhaps after early forms of the phrase have good day showing inflected forms of good (compare e.g. haue wel godne day). Compare Anglo-Norman hagedaies (plural), havegoodday (a1400; < English).

(a) at ring n.1 Compounds 2a).
