It's that age-old bafflement: the word "toboggan" -- is it a hat or a sled? And how in the world did this noun come to describe two such varied objects? Is it a coincidence that they both have to do with winter?
And I challenge you to present me with another word that serves the function of descriptive noun for two VERY different objects. I cannot think of one.
So which is it to you, a sled or a hat?
I vote hat. I don't know why. I am just as confused.
ReplyDeletethat is a pretty radical toboggan (hat) picture.
ReplyDeletei always think of the hat because we don't have sleds in texas.
hat all the way.
ReplyDeletei can't think of one either but if anyone can, its you.
go ltg!
bat, punch
ReplyDeletepunch in one sense is a verb and in one sense a noun. denied.
ReplyDeleteconservatory: 1.) a college for the study of classical music or other arts.
ReplyDelete2.) a room with glass roof and walls, used as a greenhouse or parlor.
:)
my only thing w/conservatory is that they're both spaces, in one sense. but very good, Erin Lee.
ReplyDeleteBat is a candidate too.
Pre-south Kelly would have said sled all the way. After 10 years in the south, when I hear the word I think of a hat. That makes me sad.
ReplyDeletehat.
ReplyDeleteI think I lived in Colorado too long, I think of it as a sled. Shoot. Don't tell anyone, they'll revoke my belle card.

I am from a middle state, so I have always heard "toboggan" as both a hat and a sled. I recently found out that this is because when tobogganing was a more popular sport, you had a toboggan hat and a toboggan sled. So, the areas of the cold went toward sled, because they have more variety of sleds to distinguish between; and the areas of heat went to hat, because how often would they have to debate over what sled to use?
