daburu, pakuru, "XXX-no nori-dane"

[Tomoyuki Tanaka]

i have found in my Sanseido gairaigo dictionary that daburu
did come from English "double".

kita morio's "doktor manbou senshunki" p.29 notes that pakuru
came from German "packen". if you find information about
the origin in a dictionary, please post it here.

"i think "nori" originally referred to jazz in the 1960s."
this was only a guess.

i think warunori also comes from the same source.
