单词 mascara
释义

mascaran.

Brit. /maˈskɑːrə/, /məˈskɑːrə/, U.S. /mæˈskɛrə/, /məˈskɛrə/
Forms: 1800s– mascaro, 1900s– mascara.
Origin: Either (i) a borrowing from Spanish. Or (ii) a borrowing from Italian. Or (iii) perhaps a borrowing from Catalan. Or (iv) perhaps a borrowing from Portuguese. Etymons: Spanish máscara, Italian maschera, Catalan mascara, Portuguese mascarra.
Etymology: Probably < Spanish máscara or Italian maschera, Italian regional mascara all in sense ‘mask’ (see mask n.3; G. M. Baretti, Ital. & Eng. Dict. (1760) at cited word has ‘Ella ha la máschera , she is painted’); or perhaps alternatively < Catalan mascara soot, black smear, or Portuguese mascarra stain, smut (see mascaret n.). Uses of the word in the sense ‘mascara’ in other languages appear to derive < English, e.g. French mascaro (1903 in Colette), mascara (1929), Italian mascara (1966). Cent. Dict. (1890) indicates the stress as falling on the first syllable. Subsequent dictionaries (starting with Webster in 1934) agree in indicating stress on the second syllable, although Webster (1934) also records another sense, ‘The color Tuscan red’, with stress on the first syllable: Webster (1954) indicates stress on the second syllable for both senses.
A cosmetic preparation for darkening, lengthening, and thickening the eyelashes and (occasionally) the eyebrows, usually applied with a small brush.
