hoard 贮藏，囤积

来自古英语hord,宝藏，藏宝处，来自PIE*skeu,覆盖，隐藏，词源同hide,house.引申词义贮藏，囤积。

hoard: hoard: [OE] Etymologically, a hoard is ‘that which one hides’. The word comes from a prehistoric Germanic *khuzdam, which was derived from the same base as the verb hide. (Hoarding [19], incidentally, is not etymologically connected; it comes from an earlier hoard ‘fence’, which probably goes back via Old French hourd or hord to a prehistoric German form that also produced English hurdle [OE]. Nor is the identically pronounced horde [16] related: it goes back via Polish horda to Turkish ordū ‘camp’, source also of Urdu [18], etymologically the ‘language of the camp’.)
=> hide
hoard (n.): Old English hord "treasure, valuable stock or store," from Proto-Germanic *huzdam (cognates: Old Saxon hord "treasure, hidden or inmost place," Old Norse hodd, German Hort, Gothic huzd "treasure," literally "hidden treasure"), from PIE root *(s)keu- "to cover, conceal" (see hide (n.1)).
hoard (v.): Old English hordian, cognate with Old High German gihurten, German gehorden, Gothic huzdjan, from the root of hoard (n.). Related: Hoarded; hoarding.
