单词 union pipes
释义

union pipesn.

Brit. /ˈjuːnɪən pʌɪps/, U.S. /ˈjunjən ˌpaɪps/, Irish English /ˈjuːnjən paɪps/
Forms: also with capital initial(s).
Origin: Apparently a borrowing from Irish, combined with an English element; modelled on an Irish lexical item. Etymons: Irish uilleann , uille , pipe n.1
Etymology: Apparently < Irish uilleann, genitive singular of uille elbow + the plural of pipe n.1, after Irish píoba uilleann (see uillean pipes n.), with folk-etymological remodelling of the first element after union n.2, perhaps arising from the pronunciation of the Irish word with a palatal l . Compare later uillean pipes n.
A type of bagpipes, associated with Ireland, played held on the knee using bellows worked by the elbow; = uillean pipes n. Also occasionally in singular in same sense.
