单词 potager
释义

potagern.

Brit. /ˈpɒtaʒeɪ/, /ˈpɒtədʒə/, U.S. /ˈpɑdədʒər/
Forms: Middle English portager (probably transmission error), Middle English potagare, Middle English 1600s potagere, Middle English poteger, Middle English 1700s– potager, 1600s pottagere.
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French potager.
Etymology: < Middle French, French potager cook who prepares pottages (1350 as potagier ; now obsolete in this sense), kitchen garden (1570 as potager ; attested slightly earlier as adjective (1562 in herbes potageres edible herbs, 1567 in jardin potager kitchen garden)) < potage pottage n. + -er -er suffix2. In later use (in senses 3 and 4) reborrowed < French. Compare post-classical Latin potagiarius (also potagiaria, feminine) maker of pottage (from 13th cent. in British sources).Earlier currency of the word is perhaps implied by surnames, e.g. Matilde la Potagere (1286), Walter le Potagier (1300), Robert Potageur (1304), Johannes le Potager (1327), etc., although it is unclear if these should be interpreted as reflecting the Middle English word or an (apparently otherwise unattested) Anglo-Norman equivalent. In Evelyn's use (see sense 3) it is unclear whether the final -e reflects the French feminine form. In form pottagere probably influenced by pottage n.
