英文释义
专有名词
- 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.
