单词 shiterow
释义

shiterown.

Forms: early Middle English shiterahe, Middle English schiterow, Middle English shitrow, 1800s shederow (Irish English).
Origin: Apparently formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: shit v., an element of uncertain origin.
Etymology: Apparently < shit v. (compare forms at that entry) + a second element of uncertain origin (see note). Compare shitepoke n. and discussion at that entry.With the second element compare Old English hrāgra heron, and the Germanic cognates cited at heron n. The forms schidderems, schildernes, schiwerines (all plural) found in a list of game birds in the Scottish Acts of James VI may show forms of (or ultimately errors for) the same word, probably repeated from an older enactment.
Obsolete (Irish English in later use).
The grey heron, Ardea cinerea.
