长释义：
During Prohibition in the 1920s, “rum-runners” were smugglers who illegally brought alcohol to the U.S. on boats from places including the Bahamas. Today smugglers continue to import goods that are either illegal or highly taxed (like cigarettes). Smuggler comes from the Low German smuggeln, “to transport illegally,” and shares a root with the Old English smeogan, “to creep.”
在 1920 年代的禁酒令期间，“朗姆酒走私者”是指从巴哈马群岛等地乘船非法将酒类带到美国的走私者。今天，走私者继续进口非法或高税商品（如香烟）。 Smuggler 来自低地德语 smuggeln，“非法运输”，与古英语 smeogan 共享一个词根，“偷偷摸摸”。

词源：
smuggler (n.)”one who imports and exports secretly and contrary to law,” 1660s, from Low German smuggeln or Dutch smokkelen “to transport (goods) illegally,” apparently a frequentative formation of a word meaning “to sneak” (from Proto-Germanic *smuganan; source also of Dutch smuigen “to eat secretly;” Swedish smyg “a lurking-hole,” Danish smughandel “contraband trade,” Norwegian smjuga, Old English smeogan “to creep”), perhaps literally “to slip (contraband through),” from Proto-Germanic *(s)muk- (see smock).Related entries & more
下面是词源的翻译（机器翻译比较难翻，参考着看）
smuggler (n.)“非法进出口的人”，1660 年代，来自低地德语 smuggeln 或荷兰语 smokkelen“非法运输（货物）”，显然是意思是“偷偷摸摸”的词的频繁构成（来自原始日耳曼语 *smuganan；也源自荷兰语 smuigen“偷偷吃东西”；瑞典语 smyg“潜伏的洞”，丹麦语 smughandel“违禁品贸易”，挪威语 smjuga，古英语 smeogan“爬行”），也许字面意思是“滑倒” （违禁品通过），”来自原始日耳曼语 *(s)muk-（参见 smock）。相关条目及更多
