[edit]Etymology
[edit]The etymology is uncertain:
- Doroszewski suggests an association with English shoplifting.[1]
- Bańko suggests that the word may have either derived from German Schuppen or Yiddish שאָפּע (shope) which later, due to the massive migration of Jewish diaspora to the United States in the last XIX century, may have overlapped with other Yiddish word which had been borrowed from English shop. Thus the word may be analysed as שאָפּע (shope) + -פֿעלד (-feld) (from German Feld (“field”)). [2]
- Skarżyński cites Ułaszyn who suggests that szopenfeld comes from Russian-Jewish prison thieves' cant шоттенфнллер (šottenfnller) (also шопенфиллер (šopenfiller) or шопемфиллер (šopemfiller)).[2]
