释义

zeppolen.

Brit. /ˈzɛpəleɪ/, U.S. /ˈzɛpəˌleɪ/, /zɛˈpoʊˌleɪ/
Inflections: Plural zeppoles, unchanged, zeppoli, zeppolis, zeppolies.
Forms:

α. 1800s– zeppoli (plural), 1900s– zeppoli (singular), 1900s– zeppolo (singular), 1900s– zeppolie (plural).

β. 1800s– zeppole (plural), 1900s– zeppola (singular), 1900s– zeppole (singular).

Origin: A borrowing from Italian. Etymons: Italian zeppoli, zeppolo; Italian zeppole, zeppola.
Etymology: In α. forms < Italian zeppoli, plural of zeppolo (15th cent. as çeppolo ), variant of zeppola (see below). In β. forms < Italian zeppole, plural of zeppola (late 16th cent.), of uncertain and disputed origin.Etymology. Although it has been suggested that this word is ultimately < the Germanic base of tip n.1 + respectively Italian -olo -olus suffix and -ola -ola suffix1 (a supposed parallel motivation being shown by Italian regional (Abruzzi) kune , kene small fritter, lit. ‘wedge’), an alternative derivation < Italian Zeppe , regional pet form of the male forename Giuseppe (see Joseph n.) + respectively -olo -olus suffix and -ola -ola suffix1 seems more plausible, since in many regions of Italy the pastry is customarily eaten on the feast of St Joseph (19 March), especially in the south (e.g. in Campania, Puglia, Molise, Sicily). However, in some regions of Italy, e.g. in Campania, Umbria, and Sardinia, the pastry is customarily eaten during Carnival, of which the feast of St Joseph (which always falls in Lent) can never form part. Specific forms. The Italian plural forms zeppoli (of the masculine noun) and zeppole (of the feminine noun) began to be interpreted as singulars in English use in the late 20th cent., and have in turn given rise to the English plural forms zeppolis and zeppoles.
Esp. in Italian and Italian-American cookery: pastries consisting of fried balls or rings of dough, typically topped with powdered sugar and often containing a filling of custard, cream, etc.
