英语词汇carouse的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

词汇	carouse
词源	carouse. An ancient Roman goblet used by the Germans was made in the shape of a crouching lion, with the belly as the bowl so that a drinker couldn’t put it down until he finished his wine. This led to the German toast Gar aus!, meaning “Com- pletely out!” or “Drink fully!” when drinkers lifted their goblets. Over the centuries Gar aus eventually became garouse and fi- nally carouse in English, meaning to engage in a drunken revel or to drink deeply and frequently.
