单词 tobacco
释义

tobaccon.

Brit. /təˈbakəʊ/, U.S. /təˈbækoʊ/
Forms: α. 1500s–1700s tabaco, tabacco, (1500s–1600s tabacca), 1600s tabaccho. β. 1500s–1600s tobaccho, 1500s–1700s tobaco, tobacca, (1500s tobacko, tobackco, 1600s tobako, tobaccha, tobbacco, towbaco, tobaccow, 1700s tobago), 1500s– tobacco. γ. 1600s tabac, toback, 1600s–1800s tobac.
Etymology: Altered from Spanish tabaco, according to Oviedo, the name in the Carib of Haiti of the Y-shaped tube or pipe through which the Indians inhaled the smoke; but according to Las Casas, 1552, applied to a roll of dried leaves which was kindled at the end and used by the Indians like a rude cigar. Even before Oviedo's date the name had been taken by the Spaniards as that of the herb or its leaf, in which sense it passed from Spanish into the other European languages: Portuguese tabaco, Italian †tabaco (1578), tabacco (Florio, 1598), French tabac, whence Dutch, German, Czech tabak, Dutch (17th cent.) taback; Polish tabaka, Russian tabaku. The original forms tabaco, tabacco, were retained in English to the 18th cent., but gradually driven out by tobacco. Danish and Swedish, and many German dialects, have also tobak, German 18th cent. toback.1535 Oviedo Hystoria de las Indias (1851) I. 131 A aquel tal instrumento con que toman el humo, o a las cañuelas que es dicho, llaman los Indios Tabaco: e no a la yerva o sueño que les toma (como pensavan algunos).1535 Oviedo Hystoria de las Indias (1851) IV. 96 En lengua desta isla de Haiti o Española se dice tabaco. But Dr. A. Ernst of Caracas, in Amer. Anthropologist 1889, p. 133, criticizes Oviedo's account, citing from the Guarani Vocabolario of Almeida Nogueira (Rio Janeiro, 1879) taboca as the extant Guaraniname for such a tube as that described by Oviedo, and used for inhaling through the nostrils not smoke but stimulating powders. He gives some reasons for holding that a Guarani tribe using this may have occupied the northern extremity of Haiti; and suggests that Oviedo, writing 43 years after the event, may have confused the use of this instrument with that of the tubular roll of leaves mentioned by Las Casas as tabacos . The island of Tobago , after which the herb has been said by some to be named, according to ‘Tobago, a Geogr. Description’ etc. (c1750) p. 74, received the name from its resemblance in shape to the Indian pipe; but other accounts have been given: see quot. 15771 at sense 2a.
1.
a. The leaves of the tobacco-plant (see 2) dried and variously prepared, forming a narcotic and sedative substance widely used for smoking, also for chewing, or in the form of snuff n.3, and to a slight extent in medicine.
