单词 housewifeship
释义

housewifeshipn.

Brit. /ˈhaʊswʌɪfʃɪp/, U.S. /ˈhaʊswaɪfˌʃɪp/
Forms:

α. Middle English husewifschipe, Middle English husewijfschip, 1900s– housewifeship.

β. Scottish pre-1700 husyeskep, 1800s hissieskip, 1800s hussyskep, 1900s– hizzieskip, 1900s– hizzyskip, 1900s– hooseskep, 1900s– housekep (irregular).

γ. Scottish 1700s hussy’f skap, 1800s housewifeskep, 1800s housewifskep, 1800s huswifeskep, 1800s huswifskep, 1900s– hussifskep, 1900s– hussifskip.

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: housewife n., -ship suffix.
Etymology: < housewife n. (compare forms, and see discussion, at that entry) + -ship suffix.With β. forms compare hussy n. (see forms at that entry). The Scots β. and γ. forms in -skap and -skep probably show the influence of either Middle Low German -schap or Dutch -schap (see -ship suffix), or of the early Scandinavian cognate of -ship suffix (compare Old Icelandic -skapr ). Sc. National Dict. (1960) at Hizzieskip suggests that the sense in quot. 1854 at γ. may reflect a misapprehension of quot. 1776 at γ. and confusion of the second element with skip n.2
Now rare.
Household management; housewifery. Also in later use: the role or status of housewife.In quot. 1854 at γ. perhaps: a type of bag; see the note in etymology.
