lacrosse 长曲棍球

来自法语la crosse,曲棍，弯棍，词源同cross,cricket.后用来指一种曲棍球游戏。

lacrosse: lacrosse: [18] French la crosse means ‘the hooked stick’ (crosse was originally borrowed from a prehistoric Germanic *kruk-, from which English got crook and crutch). French speakers in Canada used the term jeu de la crosse ‘game of the hooked stick’ to name a game played by the native Americans with netted sticks, and in due course this became reduced and lexicalized to lacrosse.
=> crook, crutch
