单词 pung
释义

pungn.1

Forms: Old English pung, Old English wung (transmission error), Middle English punge.
Origin: A word inherited from Germanic.
Etymology: Cognate with Old Frisian pung (North Frisian pung ), Middle Dutch pong , pung (Dutch (now regional) pong ), Middle Low German punge , Old High German -pfung (in scazpfung money bag), Old Icelandic pungr , Old Swedish punger (Swedish pung ), Danish pung (1550), Gothic puggs , further origin uncertain and disputed: perhaps related to pough n., or perhaps ultimately of expressive origin (from a base expressing swelling). Perhaps compare later bung n.2, spung n.It has been suggested that Gothic puggs is a loanword from post-classical Latin punga purse, but the Latin word is apparently first attested considerably later (7th cent.). It is unclear whether Byzantine Greek πουγγή , πουγγίον ‘purse’ is a loan from Latin or (as has been suggested) an earlier borrowing < a Germanic language (probably Gothic if so). The Old English variant wung is due to confusion of the letters p and ƿ (see wynn n.1).
Obsolete. rare.
A purse.
