单词 parka
释义

parkan.

Brit. /ˈpɑːkə/, U.S. /ˈpɑrkə/
Forms:

α. 1600s– parka, 1900s– parca (irregular), 1900s– parkha (irregular).

β. North American (chiefly Canadian and Alaska) (chiefly in sense 1) 1700s parki (plural), 1800s parkie, 1800s– parkee, 1800s– parki, 1800s– parky, 1900s– parkey Brit. /ˈpɑːki/, U.S. /ˈpɑrki/, Canadian English /ˈpɑrki/.

Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from Nenets. Partly a borrowing from Russian. Etymons: Nenets parka; Russian parki.
Etymology: < Nenets parka skin coat (and similar forms in other Samoyedic languages), in most early uses via Russian parka (mid 17th cent. in Old Russian as parka and perka in sense 1). The β. forms perhaps arose from misinterpretation of the Russian plural parki (compare quot. 1780 at sense 1) as a singular. O.E.D. Suppl. (1982) records the forms parca, parkee, and parki as obsolete.
