burbotn.

Brit.

/ˈbəːbət/, U.S.

/ˈbərˌbɑt/

Forms: Middle English borbot (1500s borbotha), 1600s burbott, burbate, burbout, 1700s–1800s burbolt, (1600s–1700s bird-bolt), 1600s– burbot, (1800s burbet, barbott).

Etymology: < French bourbotte (Littré), bourbete (Godefroy), bourbette (Cotgrave); the usual modern French form is barbote, barbotte; compare bourboter, barbotter, to dabble or wallow in mud. (The variant bird-bolt appears to be due merely to popular etymology.)

A freshwater fish ( Lota vulgaris) of the family Gadidæ, somewhat like an eel, but with a flat head, having two small ‘beards’ on the nose and one on the chin. Also called Eel-pout or Coney-fish.
