partridge 山鹑

来自古法语pertis,改写自perdis,来自希腊语perdix,山鹑，来自PIE*perd,放屁声，嗡嗡声，拟声词。因这种鸟扇动翅膀时发出的嗡嗡的声音而得名，拼写受ridge或-dge影响俗化。

partridge (n.): late 12c., from Old French pertis, alteration of perdis (perhaps influenced by fem. suffix -tris), from Latin perdicem (nominative perdix) "plover, lapwing," from Greek perdix, the Greek partridge, probably related to perdesthai "to break wind," in reference to the whirring noise of the bird's wings, from PIE imitative base *perd- "to break wind" (cognates: Sanskrit pardate "breaks wind," Lithuanian perdzu, Russian perdet, Old High German ferzan, Old Norse freta, Middle English farten).
