Did You Know?

Umbrellas have plenty of nicknames. In Britain, brolly is a popular alternative to the more staid umbrella. Sarah Gamp, a fictional nurse who toted a particularly large umbrella in Charles Dickens's novel Martin Chuzzlewit, has inspired some English speakers to dub oversize versions gamps. Bumbershoot is a predominantly American nickname, one that has been recorded as a whimsical, slightly irreverent handle for umbrellas since the late 1800s. As with most slang terms, the origins of bumbershoot are a bit foggy, but it appears that the bumber is a modification of the umbr- in umbrella and the shoot is an alteration of the -chute in parachute (since an open parachute looks a little like an umbrella).

Umbrellas有很多绰号。在英国，brolly是比较稳定的雨伞的流行替代品。在查尔斯·狄更斯的小说《马丁·丘兹勒维特》中，一个虚构的护士（Sarah Gamp）带着一把特别大的雨伞，这激发了一些 English speakers 给超大的伞起名为 gamps「（英）笨重的大伞」。Bumbershoot 主要是美国用法，自1800年代后期以来，就一直被认为是a whimsical, slightly irreverent handle for umbrellas（不明白什么意思？）。与大多数语一样，bumbershoot 的起源有点模糊，但看似是bumber是umbr- umbrella的改型，而shoot则是 parachute「降落伞」-chute的变体（因为打开的降落伞看起来有点像一把雨伞）。
