It probably comes from Irish Gaelicdornóg, "a small round stone.” However, it is not clear which group of Gaelic-speaking Irish immigrants brought the word with them.Craig M. Carver, author ofAmerican Regional Dialects, thinks it unlikely that dornick came over with the large numbers of Irish immigrants after the famine of 1846-1847 since the word was apparently well established in Missouri and Arkansas by the middle of the 19th century.Carver attributes the introduction of the term to the Scotch-Irish Protestants from Northern Ireland who emigrated to America in the 18th century. Dornick must have been one of the "few purely Irish terms" in the otherwise English and Scots lexicon of the Scotch-Irish.单词dornick 的使用范围东起宾夕法尼亚州西至伊利诺斯州。 可能起源于爱尔兰的盖尔语dornog， “小而圆的石头”。 然而，究竟哪一批操盖尔语的爱尔兰移民带来的这个词尚不清楚。美国地区方言 的作者克雷格M·卡弗尔认为 dornick 不可能是在1846至1847年的大饥荒之后由爱尔兰人带来的， 因为该词在19世纪中叶就很明显地在密苏里州和阿肯色州使用起来了。卡弗尔认为该词是由来自北爱尔兰的苏格兰爱尔兰新教徒在18世纪带到美国来的。 Dornick 肯定是“少有的纯正爱尔兰语”之一，在苏格兰爱尔兰词典中是英语或苏格兰词语〔intaglio〕A figure or design carved into or beneath the surface of hard metal or stone.凹雕；阴文：刻在坚硬的金属或石头表面上的图形或图案〔footstone〕A marking stone placed at the foot of a grave.基石：一块建在地基处有标志的石头〔shingle〕A stretch of shore or beach covered with such gravel.砂石海滩：铺着这种石头的一片海滨或海滩〔cairn〕A mound of stones erected as a memorial or marker.锥形石冢：一堆石头，用于表示纪念或标志〔dolmen〕men [stone] * see menhir men [石头] * 参见 menhir〔footwall〕The mass of rock underlying a mineral deposit in a mine.矿藏底石：位于一个矿中金属矿藏之下的大量石头〔touchstone〕A hard black stone, such as jasper or basalt, formerly used to test the quality of gold or silver by comparing the streak left on the stone by one of these metals with that of a standard alloy.试金石：一种如碧玉或玄武岩的坚硬黑色石头，先前用来检验金或银的质量，用这些金属在石头上留下的划痕与标准纯度进行比较〔augite〕Latin augītis [a precious stone] 拉丁语 augītis [珍贵的石头] 〔slab〕A broad, flat, thick piece, as of cake, stone, or cheese.厚片：宽、平、厚的一片，如蛋糕、石头或奶酪〔dark〕"Under the earth, in the flat, dark air, the wet, gloomy rock gave quarter grudgingly" (Jimmy Breslin).The word can also denote deepness of shade or color ( “在地下，在死气沉沉的、阴暗的空气里，潮湿阴郁的石头不情愿地分开 （吉米·布雷斯林）。这个单词也能表示阴影或颜色的深度( 〔trilithon〕Greek [neuter of] trilithos [having three stones] 希腊语 trilithos的中性 [有三块石头的] 〔grain〕To paint, stamp, or print with a design imitating the grain of wood, leather, or stone.漆成木纹状：绘画，压模或印刷一个图案来模拟石头，皮革或石头的纹理〔lithia〕from Greek lithos [stone] 源自 希腊语 lithos [石头] 〔grit〕Minute rough granules, as of sand or stone.砂，砂砾，砂粒：细小的粗颗粒，如砂和石头粒〔stonecutter〕A machine that is used to dress stone.切石机：修整石头的机器〔burin〕A steel cutting tool with a sharp beveled point, used in engraving or carving stone.雕刻刀：一种有尖利的斜角的钢质切割工具，用于雕刻石头〔stone〕To remove the stones or pits from.移去石头：从…中移走石头或矿井〔meteorite〕A stony or metallic mass of matter that has fallen to the earth's surface from outer space.陨星：从外层空间坠落到地球表面的大块石头或金属物质〔curbstone〕A stone or row of stones that constitutes a curb.路缘石：构成路缘的一块石头或一排石头〔saxitoxin〕New Latin Saxidomus gigantēus [clam species] Latin saxum [stone] * see saxatile Latin domus [house] * see dome Latin gigantēus [giant] 新拉丁语 Saxidomus gigantēus [贝类] 拉丁语 saxum [石头] * 参见 saxatile 拉丁语 domus [房屋] * 参见 dome 拉丁语 gigantēus [强大的] 〔grain〕A painted, stamped, or printed design that imitates the pattern found in wood, leather, or stone.纹理图案：模拟木头，皮革或石头的纹理所画出的，压模的或印刷出来的图案〔table〕A stone or gem cut in this fashion.有切平面的宝石：以这种方式切割的石头或宝石〔dump〕dumped the load of stones.卸下装载的石头〔tor〕A rocky peak or hill.石山：由石头形成的山峰或小山〔scotch〕A block or wedge used as a prop behind or under an object likely to roll.楔子：作为一支撑物放在好象要滚动的物体后面或下面的石头或楔形物〔pessary〕from Greek pessos [oval-shaped stone, pessary] 源自 希腊语 pessos [椭圆形石头，子宫套] 〔dingbat〕An object, such as a brick or stone, used as a missile.投掷物：用作投掷的物体，例如砖块或石头〔get〕He got his information out of an encyclopedia.
