pettifogger词源

pettifogger (n.)

1560s, from petty; the second element possibly from obsolete Dutch focker, from Flemish focken \"to cheat,\" or from cognate Middle English fugger, from Fugger the renowned family of merchants and financiers of 15c.-16c. Augsburg. In German, Flemish and Dutch, the name became a word for \"monopolist, rich man, usurer.\"

A \'petty Fugger\' would mean one who on a small scale practices the dishonourable devices for gain popularly attributed to great financiers; it seems possible that the phrase \'petty fogger of the law,\' applied in this sense to some notorious person, may have caught the popular fancy. [OED first edition, in a rare burst of pure speculation]

However, OED also calls attention to pettifactor \"legal agent who undertakes small cases\" (1580s), which, though attested slightly later, might be the source of this. Related: Pettifoggery.
