单词 coppice
释义

coppicen.

Brit. /ˈkɒpɪs/, U.S. /ˈkɑpəs/
Forms: α. 1500s copys, copeys, 1500s–1600s cop(p)ise, (1500s coppisse, coupisse), 1600s coppis, copice, 1600s– coppice; β. plural 1500s copyes, 1500s–1600s coppies, coppys; singular 1500s copie, 1500s–1600s (1700s–1800s dialect), coppy, coppey, coppie. See also copse n.
Etymology: < Old French copeïz, couppeiz, colpeïz < late Latin type *colpātīcium ‘having the quality of being cut’, < colpāt- participial stem of colpāre , to cut with a blow, < late Latin colpus (Salic Law), earlier colapus (Alemannic Law) blow, stroke < Latin colaphus , < Greek κόλαϕος blow, cuff. (The Anglo-Norman French and Middle English form was latinized in later times as copecia , copicia .) As in other French words ending in an s sound, the plural was originally the same as the singular copys ; this led to the English singular being frequently made copy , coppy , which is now very common in the dialects. On the other hand, the vowel of the final syllable was, as in the -es , -is , -ys of plurals, often dropped, leaving cops , surviving in the form copse n.
a. A small wood or thicket consisting of underwood and small trees grown for the purpose of periodical cutting.
