- 1鯷魚(鹹味很重的小魚,披薩上常見)
An anchovy is a very small sea fish with a strong salt taste. People often eat it salted or packed in oil, not as a big piece of fresh fish on a plate. Cooks use it more like a than like a steak: one or two fish can flavour a whole sauce or a pizza. Many students in Taiwan meet it first as little dark strips on a pizza that smell of the sea and of salt. Some people love that hit; some pick them off. The taste is much stronger than a sardine, even if the fish can look similar. It is an ordinary food word — not fancy, not slang — used in kitchens, menus, and recipes. Though actually, fresh grilled anchovies are a different experience from the salty tins; when English speakers say “anchovies” on a pizza, they almost always mean the or jarred kind.
組成English took this from Spanish anchoa, from an old Genoese or Corsican word. People have tried to push it further back — maybe Latin, maybe Basque — but the sounds do not fit well, and none of those guesses really satisfies. From Spanish, then, and before that, not clearly known.
