| 词组 | not much chop |
| 释义 | ☞ The sense of chop in this expression originated in the Hindi word chāp meaning 'official stamp'. Europeans in the Far East extended the use of the word to cover documents such as passports to which an official stamp or impression was attached and in China it came to mean 'branded goods'. From this, in the late 19th century, chop was used to refer to something that had 'class' or had been validated as genuine or good.
