词源 1
Originally a dialectal variant of halsen (“to predict”), equivalent to halsen + -y (infinitive suffix). While nominal use is mentioned once in 19th century English dialect literature, the modern sense of "prediction, conjecture" probably originates from misinterpretation of the verb in dictionaries.
