<注釋>Apig in a poke is concealed in a sack from the buyer. The nounpoke —meaning a bag or sack—dates from the 4th century in English. In many parts of Scotlandpoke means a little paper bag for carrying purchases or a cone-shaped piece of paper for an ice-cream cone. TheOxford English Dictionary gives similar forms in other languages: Icelandicpoki, Gaelic poc or poca, and French poche. Pouchand pocket are undoubtedly cognates.
一只袋子里的豬 被藏于一只麻袋中而不讓買(mǎi)主看到。 poke 這個(gè)名詞——意為一個(gè)包或袋子——在英語(yǔ)中可追溯到4世紀(jì)。 在蘇格蘭的許多地方，poke 指用來(lái)攜帶商品的一個(gè)小紙包或用來(lái)包冰淇淋卷的一張錐形紙片。 牛津英語(yǔ)詞典 給出了該詞在其它語(yǔ)言中的近似形式： 冰島語(yǔ)中的poki ，蓋耳語(yǔ)中的 poc 或 poca 和法語(yǔ)中的 poche。 Pouch和 pocket 無(wú)疑是同源詞
