单词 shako
释义

shakon.

Brit. /ˈʃeɪkəʊ/, /ˈʃakəʊ/, U.S. /ˈʃækoʊ/, /ˈʃeɪkoʊ/
Forms: Also schakos, schako; and see chaco n.
Etymology: < Magyar csákó, short for csákó süveg, more correctly csákos süveg peaked cap (csákos being an adjective < csák peak, believed by Hungarian scholars to be < German zacken point, spike). The word has been adopted into several European languages; the French schako may be the proximate source. While the shako was still worn in the British army, the pronunciation was /ˈʃækəʊ/ among officers, but /ʃəˈkuː/ in the ranks.
A military cap in the shape of a truncated cone, with a peak and either a plume or a ball or ‘pom-pom’. (Not now worn by British soldiers.)
