释义

Partletn.1

Brit. /ˈpɑːtlᵻt/, U.S. /ˈpɑrtlət/
Forms: Middle English Pertelot, Middle English Pertelote, 1500s Pertelok, 1500s– Partlet. N.E.D. (1904) also records forms Middle English Pertilot, Middle English Pertilote.
Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: pert adj., English -elot.
Etymology: Origin uncertain; perhaps humorously < pert adj. + -elot, diminutive suffix, to resemble a (fictitious) Middle French female forename.There is no evidence that the word was ever used as a personal name. The spelling of the headword form is perhaps influenced by partlet n.2
Now archaic and rare.
Originally (more fully Dame Partlet) a name traditionally applied to: a hen. More generally: a hen; (in extended use) a woman. Cf. chanticleer n.
