| 词汇 | snoop |
| 词源 | snoop. The verb snoop derives from something Americans still do, but which we have no good word for—the Dutch snoepen, “to eat sweets secretively.” Snoepen came to mean the prying and spying that the Dutch in early New York did on their neighbors, and passed into English as snoop in the late 18th century. |
