释义

chicklingn.1

Brit. /ˈtʃɪklɪŋ/, U.S. /ˈtʃɪklɪŋ/
Forms:

α. 1500s cichelinge, 1500s cichelynge, 1500s cichlyng, 1500s cichlynge, 1500s–1700s cichling, 1600s–1700s chicheling, 1600s–1700s chichling.

β. 1600s chickeling, 1600s– chickling.

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: chich n., -ling suffix1.
Etymology: < chich n. + -ling suffix1, after classical Latin cicercula ( < cicera chickling vetch ( < cicer Cicer n. + -a -a suffix1) + -cula -cula suffix). Compare slightly earlier chickpea n.It is unclear whether the change of chich- to chick- which is reflected in the β. forms was intentional or arose as an error. Chickling apparently occurs first in Wilkins (1668); he uses the form three times, so it is less likely to be a misprint than a deliberate choice. Kersey's Dict. (1708–21) has chichling, and so also Bailey 1721, but from 1731 onwards the editions of Bailey have chickling (apparently a misprint, since Bailey's folio of 1730–6 retains chichling, which also occurs in texts as late as 1759). The Index to Miller's Gardener's Dict. (1759) has chickling, but the text has chichling (about 35 times in the entry Lathyrus).
Any of various leguminous plants, esp. of the genus Lathyrus; spec. L. sativus and L. cicera. Occasionally also: †the seed of such a plant (obsolete). Now rare.Some of these plants are now called vetchling.
