<注釋>Although caviar might seem to be something quintessentially Russian,the wordcaviar is not a native one, the Russian term beingikra. Caviar first came into English in the 'th century,probably by way of French and Italian,which, along with other European languages, borrowed it from Turkishhavyar. The source of the Turkish word is apparently an Iranian dialectal form related to the Persian word for .egg,.kh3yah, and this in turn goes back to the same Indo-European root that gives us the English wordsegg and oval. This rather exotic etymology is appropriate to a substance that is not to everyone`s taste,giving rise to Shakespeare`s famous phrase,.`twas caviary to the general,.the general public, that is.
雖然魚子醬一詞有點俄羅斯風範,但caviar 一詞不是俄語, 俄語詞是ikra。 Caviar 第一次出現在英文中是在'世紀,大概是來自法文和義大利語,而它們又與其它歐洲語言一起從土耳其語havyar 借用而來。 土耳其詞的來源很明顯是從與波斯單詞.雞蛋.khayah 有關的伊朗方言中而來, 並且由此追溯到給我們帶來eggoval 的同一印歐語系詞根。 這種怪異的詞源學不會適合所有人的口味,由此帶來了莎士比亞的名言,.它是適合大眾口味的魚子醬,.即指一般公眾
