单词 lotharingian
释义

Lotharingiann.adj.

Brit. /ˌləʊθəˈrɪn(d)ʒɪən/, /ˌləʊθəˈrɪn(d)ʒ(ə)n/, U.S. /ˌloʊθəˈrɪndʒ(i)ən/
Forms: 1600s– Lotharingian, 1900s– Lotaringian (rare).
Origin: From a proper name, combined with an English element. Etymons: proper name Lotharingia , -an suffix.
Etymology: < Lotharingia, the name of a medieval kingdom (see note at definition; post-classical Latin Lotharingia (10th cent.; from 13th cent. in British sources)) + -an suffix. Compare post-classical Latin Lotharingensis, noun (12th cent. in a British source), Lotharingus, adjective and noun (from 12th cent. in British sources), Old French Loherenc, noun (c1100; Middle French, French lorrain, adjective and noun), Old High German Lotharing, noun (compare German Lotharinger, noun, lotharingisch, adjective, with reference to the Middle Ages, Lothringer, lothringisch, with reference to contemporary Lorraine).The Latin name Lotharingia is apparently derived < Lotharius , the name of Lothair II (see note at definition) + a Germanic suffix expressing belonging (see -ing suffix3 ), although the place name is later also sometimes associated with Lothair I. Both the kingdoms of Lothair I and the smaller one of Lothair II were originally referred to as regnum Hlotharii , regnum Lotharii in post-classical Latin (9th cent. in both senses). Forms of the place name are attested in English from at least the 15th cent. (e.g. in Capgrave as Lotharinge , with reference to the kingdom of Lothair II). Compare Anglo-Norman Lothringe (1340 or earlier; late 13th cent. in abbreviated forms, all with reference to the duchy: see Lorraine n.).
Chiefly historical.
A. n.
A native or inhabitant of Lotharingia or Lorraine. Cf. Lorrainer n.Lotharingia was a medieval kingdom, later a duchy, in north-western Europe.In 843, Charlemagne's Empire was divided into three parts, of which the central one (a strip stretching from the coast of the Low Countries to northern Italy) was given as a kingdom to the Holy Roman Emperor Lothair I (795–855). Upon Lothair's abdication in 855, this territory was further divided between his sons, with Lothair II (835–869) inheriting the northern part, which later became known as Lotharingia. It became a duchy in the early 10th cent., and after a further division, its southern part continued as the duchy of Lorraine, now an administrative region in north-eastern France (cf. Lorraine n.).
