• n. 熊貓；貓熊
• n. (Panda)人名；(印、塞)潘達(dá)

來自法語panda,小熊貓，小貓熊，借自尼泊爾語，原指尼泊爾一種浣熊狀的哺乳動物。后在20世紀(jì)初中國四川首次發(fā)現(xiàn)大熊貓后，由該詞創(chuàng)造新詞Giant Panda,來指大熊貓，最后該詞小寫并通用化。

panda (n.)

1835, from French, apparently from the Nepalese name of a raccoon-like mammal (lesser panda) found there. First reference to the Giant Panda is from 1901; since its discovery in 1869 by French missionary Armand David (1826-1900) it had been known as parti-colored bear, but the name was changed after the zoological relationship to the red panda was established.
