词汇	shallop
词源	shallop n. kind of light boat for use in shallow water or to communicate between larger vessels, 1580s, from French chaloupe, from Dutch sloep "sloop" (see sloop). Earlier a type of large, heavy boat (1570s). Compare Spanish chalupa, Italian scialuppa. Entries linking to shallop sloop n. 1620s, "small fore-and-aft rigged vessel with one mast, generally carrying a jib, fore-stay sail, mainsail, and gaff-topsail" [Century Dictionary], from Dutch sloep "a sloop;" probably from French chaloupe, from Old French chalupe "small, sloop-rigged vessel," which is perhaps related to English shallop [OED]. But according to Barnhart and Watkins the Dutch word might simply be from Middle Dutch slupen "to glide," from PIE root sleubh-. In old military use, a small ship of war carrying guns on the upper deck only (1670s). Related: Sloop-rigged*. updated on July 29, 2022
