ostrich 타조 어원

[나비우스]

ostrich

ostrich (n.)

early 13c., from Old French ostruce "ostrich" (Modern French autruche) and 

Medieval Latin ostrica, ostrigius, all from Vulgar Latin avis struthio, 

from Latin avis "bird" (from PIE root *awi- "bird") + Late Latin struthio "ostrich," from Greek strouthion "ostrich," from strouthos megale "big sparrow," perhaps from 

PIE *trozdo- "thrush" (see thrush (n.1)). 

The Greeks also knew the bird as strouthokamelos "camel-sparrow," for 

its long neck. Among its proverbial peculiarities are indiscriminate 

voracity (especially a habit of swallowing iron and stone to aid digestion)

, want of regard for its eggs, and a tendency to hide its head when pursued.

Ostriches do put their heads in the sand, but ostrich farmers say they do 

this in search of something to eat.
