英语词汇schneider的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

schneider; Schneiderian membrane. The only Schneider I can find whose name became a word is the German C. V. Sch- neider (1610–80), for whom, as a result of his anatomical re- searches, the Schneiderian membrane, or mucous membrane of the nose is named. But there may be a case for the gin rummy schneider: one schneiders, or schneids, an opponent in gin rum- my by winning before one’s opponent has scored any points. Did some gin champion named Schneider do this so often that the feat came to be named after him? Or does the word derive from the German Schneider, “tailor,” as most scholars believe? The term is apparently an Americanism, in use only since about 1940. Perhaps the term derives from “tailor” because tailors cut clothes down and schneiders cut down the size of the loser’s bankroll!
