raspberry

1、覆盆子这名字是拼装货：早先只叫 raspes/raspis（来源谜，一说形容果子表面 rough 粗糙，近 rasp 刮擦），-berry（浆果）是后来才贴上的标签。
2、咂舌声"嘘——"另有江湖典故：同韵黑话 raspberry tart 顶替 fart，先说半句押韵、再缩成一个词，blow a raspberry 就成嘲弄的噤舌音。同韵词替换是伦敦 Cockney 江湖黑话的传统艺能。
3、读音藏着哑音：英 /ˈrɑːz.bər.i/ 美 /ˈræz.ber.i/，p 不发音——rasp 本字就念"刮"。strawberry（草莓）为空话搭一句：草-莓，长得像 berry（莓果）的草上果。

raspberry

raspberry: [17] The origins of the word raspberry are a mystery. At first, the fruit was known simply as raspes or raspis (recorded in an Anglo-Latin text as early as the 13th century), and the -berry was not tacked on until the early 17th century – but no one knows where raspes came from. Its use for a ‘rude noise made by blowing’, first recorded in the 1890s, comes from rhyming slang raspberry tart ‘fart’.

raspberry (n.)

1620s, earlier raspis berry (1540s), possibly from raspise "a sweet rose-colored wine" (mid-15c.), from Anglo-Latin vinum raspeys, origin uncertain, as is the connection between this and Old French raspe, Medieval Latin raspecia, raspeium, also meaning "raspberry." One suggestion is via Old Walloon raspoie "thicket," of Germanic origin. Klein suggests it is via the French word, from a Germanic source akin to English rasp (v.), with an original sense of "rough berry," based on appearance.

A native plant of Europe and Asiatic Russia, the name was applied to a similar vine in North America. Meaning "rude sound" (1890) is shortening of raspberry tart, rhyming slang for fart.
