单词 hubbub
释义

hubbubn.

Brit. /ˈhʌbʌb/, U.S. /ˈhəbəb/
Forms: 1500s hooboube, hooboobe, hoeboube, 1500s–1600s whobub, hubub, hobub, 1600s whoo-bub, whoopubb, hoobub, howbub, how-bub, hub hub, 1600s– hubbub.
Etymology: In 16th cent. hooboube, -boobe, often referred to as an Irish outcry, and probably representing some Irish expression. Compare Gaelic ub! ub! ubub! an interj. of aversion or contempt; abu! the war cry of the ancient Irish. Connection with hoop, whoop, has been suggested by Richardson; but this was apparently only a later association.
1.
a. A confused noise of a crowd shouting or talking; the shouting of a war cry; a ‘hue and cry’.With Irish hubbub cf. hubbaboo n. The Welsh hubbub seems to have been (see quot. 1645) a ‘hue and cry’ only.
