My huckleberry friend,
是什么意思呢?
解答:
My huckleberry friend: my good friend or my best friend.
Most etymologists will own up to the idea that idiomatic phrase could be making a vague allusion to Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn who were close friends in their youth.
"I'm your huckleberry" considered as a mark of affection or comradeship to one's partner or sidekick, as in the best man for the job.
By the 1900's the Dictionary of American Regional English defined, "huckleberry" to mean, in addition to, "the desired or suitable person" for a task, but also an all-around nice person or even "sweetheart" because, huckleberries could be special, too, as in the phrase "the only huckleberry on the bush," signifying something unique.
