单词 ladys glove
释义

lady's gloven.

Brit. /ˌleɪdɪz ˈɡlʌv/, U.S. /ˌleɪdiz ˈɡləv/
Forms:

α. 1500s ladye gloue, 1800s– lady glove.

β. 1500s– ladies gloue, 1600s–1700s ladies glove, 1600s– ladies' glove, 1700s– lady's glove.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: lady n., glove n.
Etymology: In α. forms < lady n. + glove n., perhaps originally reflecting a genitive compound with unmarked first element (see discussion at lady n.). In β. forms < the genitive of lady n. + glove n., although the first element is sometimes apprehended as plural; so called on account of the resemblance of the flower clusters to the fingers of a glove. Compare German Frauenhandschuh foxglove. Compare earlier Our Lady's gloves n. at Our Lady n. Compounds 2b.
Chiefly English regional (midlands). Now rare.
Any of various plants having flowers borne in clusters resembling the fingers of a glove.Among the plants to which this name has been applied are foxglove ( Digitalis purpurea), lungwort ( Pulmonaria officinalis), and bird's-foot trefoil ( Lotus corniculatus).
