释义

malocan.

Brit. /məˈləʊkə/, U.S. /məˈloʊkə/
Forms: 1800s malocca, 1900s– maloca.
Origin: Either (i) a borrowing from Portuguese. Or (ii) a borrowing from Spanish. Etymons: Portuguese maloca; Spanish maloca.
Etymology: < Brazilian Portuguese maloca or Bolivian Spanish, Argentinian Spanish, Colombian Spanish, Venezuelan Spanish maloca an Indian settlement in one or more buildings; earlier in Brazilian Portuguese, Argentinian Spanish, Uruguayan Spanish in the sense ‘unexpected attack by Indians’ (17th–early 19th centuries) < Mapuche malocan to make war, to fight. The transition of sense from ‘attack’ to ‘dwelling’ probably followed the pacification of the indigenous population of the Argentinian pampas, and spread northwards in later use.
