英语词汇chow chow的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

chow chow. Chow chow, or chow, a medium-sized, generally red, black, or brown nonsporting dog of Chinese breed, may derive its name from chow, a pidgin word for food, or from chow-chow, the Chinese mixed-fruit preserve. Another theory, which seems more plausible, is that it is simply from the Chi- nese Chou, this being the name of the ancient Chinese race that formed the Chou dynasty, which ruled from about 1122 to 256 b.c., and which brought China’s first “golden age.” The chow is noted for its sturdy build, large head, and deep-set eyes. Proba- bly originally bred in northern China, it can be traced back as early as 150 b.c.
