单词 | 冰激凌 |
释义 | 〔dope〕Before it came to mean "a narcotic or narcotics considered as a group,”dope was borrowed into English from the Dutch word doop, "sauce.” Throughout the 19th century it meant "gravy.”In the lower northern United States,from Pennsylvania westward to Missouri, dope still means "a sauce of sorts";it is now the term for a topping for ice cream,such as syrup or a chocolate or fruit sauce.In the South, on the other hand,dope means "a cola-flavored soft drink.” The term might be related to the northern usage as a reference to the sweet syrup base of a cola drink.However, folk wisdom has it thatdope recalls the inclusion of minute amounts of cocaine in the original Atlanta recipe for Coca-Cola, which was named after this exotic ingredient.Dope 是从荷兰语 doop 借入英语的,后来才用来指“麻醉剂的总称”。 整个19世纪该词的含义为“肉汁,肉卤”。在美国北部低地地区,从宾夕法尼亚州向西一直到密苏里州, dope 一词仍然指“一种调味汁”;现在用来指冰激凌的浇料,如糖浆、巧克力或果汁。另一方面,在南方dope 一词指“味道象可乐的软饮”。 这种用法可能与北方用来指糖浆做成的可乐饮料这种用法有关。然而,民间的说法是dope 令人想起原亚特兰大处方中的可口可乐包括的少量古苛硷, 可口可乐就是得名于这种产于外国的成分 |
