That explanation is linked through 'the main word' below; but I feel it's more important to understand that word better. And I find that you understand words better when you look at the other words at the bases of the words you're thinking-of ...
"Sea Shanties" are 'the #Shanties of the |Sea,' I guess (Adam Neely defines it way better).
The word “Shanties” (if not the word for 'Rough |Cabin,' built on ancient words that mean "a |Frame, |Rafter, |Gantry" #Shanty #Shantytown #ShantyIrish) is an alternate spelling of #Chanty.
The word "Chanty" is built on ancient words that mean "to Sing." #Chanter
