释义

mennardn.

Brit. /ˈmɛnəd/, U.S. /ˈmɛnərd/
Forms: 1700s mennot, 1800s– menard, 1800s– mennad, 1800s– mennard, 1800s– menot.
Origin: Probably a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymon: minnow n.
Etymology: Probably a variant of minnow n.Earliest recorded with final -ot , probably after fish names in -ot (e.g. burbot n., cabot n., turbot n., etc.; see -ot suffix); forms in -ard , -ad are probably remodelled after fish names in -ard (e.g. billard n., gurnard n., pilchard n., pollard n.3, etc.). It is unclear whether the form menner in quot. 1869 should be taken as showing a variant of this word or (as given in Eng. Dial. Dict.) a distinct variant of minnow n.
English regional (northern).
The minnow, Phoxinus phoxinus.
