meadow 草地
來(lái)自古英語(yǔ)maedwe,來(lái)自Proto-Germanic*medwo,來(lái)自PIE*metwa,割過(guò)的草地，來(lái)自*me,割草，割谷子，可能來(lái)自擬聲詞。最后詞義演變成草地本身。比較pork,farrow,furrow.
英文詞源
- meadow
- meadow: [OE] Etymologically, meadow means ‘mowed land’. It goes back ultimately to an Indo-European *mētwá, a derivative of the base *mē- ‘mow’ (source of English mow [OE]). In prehistoric Germanic this became *m?dwō (whence German matte ‘meadow’), which passed into Old English as m?d. The modern English descendant of this, mead, now survives only as an archaism, but its inflected form, m?dwe, has become modern English meadow.
=> mow - meadow (n.)
- Old English m?dwe "meadow, pasture," originally "land covered in grass which is mown for hay;" oblique case of m?d (see mead (n.2)).
