Noun [English]

Forms: shovelers [plural]
Etymology: * (one who, or that which, shovels): From shovel + -er; compare Middle English schoveler (“a person who works with a shovel”). * (duck): From Middle English shoulere, shovellewre, shovelere, schoueler, alteration of earlier schovelerd, schulerde, schevelard (“shovelard”), from schovel (“shovel”), perhaps influenced by malard (“mallard”), on model of Middle Dutch lepelaar (“spoonbill”), with Middle English -ard replacing -aar and later itself replaced by Middle English -er, but not completely certain. Probably at least influenced by the shape of the bill and its feeding behavior.

Probably at least influenced by the shape of the bill and its feeding behavior.",
