单词 aggresteyne
释义

aggresteynen.

Brit. /ˈaɡrᵻstiːn/, U.S. /ˈæɡrəˌstin/
Forms: Middle English 2000s– aggresteyne, 1500s 1800s aggrestine, 2000s– aggrestyne.
Origin: A borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: Latin agrus , teen n.1
Etymology: < post-classical Latin agrus sharp, acute (see agrum n.) + teen n.1, after post-classical Latin agrus fumus pruritus in hawks (12th cent. in Liber de natura falconum, the source of quot. 1486; < post-classical Latin agrus + classical Latin fūmus fume n.).The post-classical Latin name of the disease is aetiological, indicating that it was thought to be caused by bad humours. It was borrowed into Romance languages; compare Italian †agro fumo (14th cent.; also †fumo agro) and Middle French aigrefeume (15th cent. in a translation of Liber de natura falconum).
Falconry. rare. Now historical.
A form of pruritis affecting the tails of hawks, giving rise to self-mutilation.
