註釋
「Out here on the Chesapeake, they call it 『drudging for arsters,』」says Charles Kuralt in his book On the Road with Charles Kuralt. The standard English verb dredge is pronounced with a centralized vowel by Chesapeake Bay oyster fishermen, yielding drudge. Drudge in turn has been picked up by city dwellers on the Delmarva Peninsula; a survey of some young people from Baltimore revealed that they did not even know that there was a standard English verb dredge. Kuralt gives the regional pronunciation a whimsical folk etymology with the standard meaning of drudge, 「to do tedious, menial, or unpleasant work,」 observing, 「Whatever you do for a living, it's not as hard as 『drudging for arsters.』」
在切薩皮克灣那邊，他們把它稱之為「為捕蝦做苦工，」查爾斯·庫洛特在他的與查爾斯·庫洛特同游 一書中談及。 標準英語動詞dredge ，在發音時其元音被切薩皮克灣捕蝦漁民發成中元音，隨後產生 drudge。 Drudge 又被德爾馬瓦半島一城市居民吸收；對來自巴爾的摩的一部分年輕人的調查表明，他們甚至不知道有一個標準英語動詞dredge 。 對具有標準含義的drudge 「做單調、卑賤或無趣工作」，庫洛特給出了一個稀奇古怪的民俗語源， 他說道，「無論你以何謀生，再沒有比捕蝦做的工更苦的了」
