# pannikin
## English
### Etymology

From pan +‎ -kin.

### Noun

pannikin (plural pannikins)
* A durable cup or other vessel used for drinking made of metal and coated in enamel.
** 1852, Ellen Clacy (diarist), cited in Susan Lawrence, "Households on Australian goldfields" in Penelope M. Allison (ed.), The Archaeology of Household Activities, London: Routledge, 1999,
    ‘a block of wood forms a table, and this is the only furniture; many dispense with that. The bedding, which is laid on the ground, serves to sit upon. Tin plates and pannikins… compose the tea service.’
** 1876, Earl of Dunraven, The Great Divide: Travels in the Upper Yellowstone in the Summer of 1874‎, London: Chatto and Windus, page 265:Scarcely had we got things fixed and supper under weigh, when a yell from Boteler, 'He's going to spout!' caused us to drop teapot and pannikin, and tumble out of the tent in half no time.
** 1934, George Orwell, Burmese Days:A stout Burmese woman, wife of a constable, was kneeling outside the cage ladling rice and watery dahl into tin pannikins.
** 1938 April, George Orwell [pseudonym; Eric Arthur Blair], Homage to Catalonia, London: Secker & Warburg, →OCLC:It is all bound up in my mind with the winter cold, the ragged uniforms of militiamen, the oval Spanish faces, the morse-like tapping of machine-guns, the smells of urine and rotting bread, the tinny taste of bean-stews wolfed hurriedly out of unclean pannikins.
** 1950, Isaac Bashevis Singer, translated by A.H. Gross, The Family Moskat, New York: Knopf, Part V, Chapter 1, p. 258:The peasants and their wives came to the doors of their cottages. Some brought out pannikins of water to the fleeing Jews; others laughed and jeered.
** 2007, Toyin Falola, Amanda Warnock, editors, Encyclopedia of the Middle Passage, Westport, Connecticut: Greenwood, page 131:Water was seriously rationed, and each slave was given half a pint of water served in a pannikin.
* The contents of such a vessel.
** 1903, Ernest W. Hornung, chapter 18, in Denis Dent‎, New York: Frederck A. Stokes, page 183:“ […] Put the billy on the fire, Jimmy, and we’ll drink him a good voyage in half a pannikin of tea before we turn in.”
