单词 盖丘亚语
释义 〔lagniappe〕Lagniappe derives from New World Spanish la ñapa, "the gift,” and perhaps ultimately from Quechua yapay, "to give more.” The word came into the rich Creole dialect mixture of New Orleans and there acquired a French spelling. It is still used chiefly in southern Louisiana to denote a little bonus that a friendly shopkeeper might add to a purchase. By extension, it may mean "an extra or unexpected gift or benefit.” Lagniappe 源于新大陆西班牙语中的 la~napa (“礼物”),而且也许最终来自盖丘亚语中的 yapay (“给得更多”)。这个词进入了新奥尔良富有的克里奥耳人的对话用语并因此具有了法语的拼法。直至今日它还是主要用于路易斯安那州的南部,用来形容那些友好的店主们可能会在你所购物之外给予额外的东西。根据它的延伸意,该词可以指“额外的或意料不到的礼物或收益。”
