Featherstonehaugh

专有名词
/fɛð.ə.stəʊn.hɔː/   

英文释义

专有名词
  1. A surname.

词源

From Old English feþer + stān + healh, equivalent to feather + stone + haugh.
The irregular short pronunciation seems to derive from some combination of shortening of the longer pronunciation (/fɛðəstəʊnhɔː/ → /fɛstənhɔː/ → ?) and confusion with the unrelated surname Fanshawe, Fanshaw.
