Etymology of SCUPPER-HOSE

The term "scupper-hose" does not have an established etymology as it is not a widely recognized or commonly used word. It appears to be a combination of two words: "scupper" and "hose".

"Scupper" refers to a drainage channel, often found on a ship's deck or in building construction, that allows water to drain off. The word "scupper" itself stems from the Middle English word "scoppe" or "skopper", which referred to a channel or pipe.

On the other hand, "hose" originates from the Old English word "hosa", which meant "covering for the leg". Over time, the meaning expanded to include flexible tubing or pipes used for conveying fluids or gases.
