词源

词源 1
Cognate with various Germanic counterparts, including German spritzen, Pennsylvania German schpritze, Yiddish שפּריץ (shprits, noun), and Yiddish שפּריצן (shpritsn, verb), and variously said (by various sources) to be borrowed from any of them; spritzer is said by some sources to be borrowed from German Spritzer, rather than being an English agent noun derived from this verb, but by surface analysis the connection is clear, even if sources do not adduce the evidence for the diachrony.
词源 2
Clipping of spritzer.
词源 3
From Italian spritz, a shortening of Austrian German Gespritzter (“spritzer”).
