词源

Borrowed from French chanterelle, from New Latin cantharellus, diminutive of Latin cantharus (“drinking vessel”), from Ancient Greek κάνθαρος (kántharos). Probably of Pre-Greek origin, cognate with Akkadian 𒃶𒁺𒊒𒌑 (/⁠kanduru⁠/, “kind of vessel”), from Sumerian 𒄑𒃶𒉡𒌉 (/⁠gannu-tur⁠/, “small vessel; potstand”, literally “little vessel, container, holder”).
