Is hoosegow a loan word borrowed from spanish?
Yes, "hoosegow" is a loanword borrowed from Spanish. It is derived from the Spanish word "juzgado," which means "court" or "judgment." Over time, it evolved in American English to refer colloquially to a jail or prison, particularly in the American West. The term reflects the influence of Spanish on American English, especially in regions with significant Spanish-speaking populations.
Is jail bait is just a set on the trigger of the hoosegow a metaphor?
Yes. As an English teacher I would say so. It means Curley's Wife is going to be the catalyst to a term of imprisonment. She will get someone put in jail. It doesn't make perfect sense as jailbait also means this. Hoosegow is prison, so she is a trigger for prison for one of the men. Which sort of ends up true, so it foreshadsows the ending.
