mackerel 鲭鱼
来自古法语maquerel,皮条客，中介，中间人，进一步词源不详。可能来自古日耳曼语，词源同make，-erel,小词后缀。取make做爱词义，因这种鱼在夏季会成群游到海岸附近产卵，场面壮观，给古人留人一种这种鱼情爱习惯特别热烈的印象，因而得名。
英语词源
- mackerel (n.)
- edible fish, c. 1300, from Old French maquerel "mackerel" (Modern French maquereau), of unknown origin but apparently identical with Old French maquerel "pimp, procurer, broker, agent, intermediary," a word from a Germanic source (compare Middle Dutch makelaer "broker," from Old Frisian mek "marriage," from maken "to make"). The connection is obscure, but medieval people had imaginative notions about the erotic habits of beasts. The fish approach the shore in shoals in summertime to spawn. Exclamation holy mackerel is attested from 1876.
