安哥拉種長毛動物
核心畫面
Picture an animal whose hair has simply been allowed to grow: a rabbit so round with fur that you cannot find its feet, a goat with a coat that hangs down like a curtain, a white cat that takes up twice the space it should. That is what the word first points at, a breed marked out by long, soft hair. Everything else the word does follows the hair: brush it off, spin it into thread, knit the thread, and the name travels with it all the way onto a clothing label.

angora 可以想成一隻毛被放著一直長的動物：一隻圓到看不見腳的兔子、一隻毛垂下來像簾子的山羊、一隻佔位置比別的貓大一倍的白貓。這個字最先指的就是這種「毛特別長、特別軟」的品種。它後來的用法都跟著那身毛走：毛梳下來、紡成線、織成衣服，名字就一路跟著跑到了衣服的成分標籤上。From the word’s history
The source says angora comes from the name of the Turkish city Ankara, known in English as Angora, and that the city name goes back to Ancient Greek ankura, meaning anchor. The place name came first; the animals known from there took it, and then their hair did.
來源說 angora 來自土耳其城市 Ankara 的名字，這座城以前在英文裡就寫作 Angora，再往前是古希臘文 ánkura，意思是「錨」。先有地名，那裡出名的長毛動物拿走了這個名字，動物身上的毛又再拿走一次。很多布料名字都是這樣從地名來的。

從動物身上來的毛與線
名字從動物身上移到牠身上的毛。英文裡材質常常就用來源動物或產地的名字來叫，所以毛梳下來、紡成線之後，還是叫 angora。
