释义

Montenegrinn.adj.

Brit. /ˌmɒntᵻˈniːɡrɪn/, /ˌmɒntᵻˈneɪɡrɪn/, U.S. /ˌmɑn(t)əˈneɪɡrᵻn/
Forms: 1800s Montenegrine, 1800s– Montenegrin.
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French Monténégrin.
Etymology: < French Monténégrin, noun and adjective (1777 or earlier) < Monténégro , the French name for Montenegro (Serbian Crna Gora , Albanian Mali i Zi , Italian Montenegro : see below), the name of a mountainous state in the western Balkans + -in -ine suffix1, probably after Italian Montenegrino, noun and adjective (18th cent. or earlier). Compare German Montenegrin, noun (1778 or earlier; probably < Italian).The name of the state in French and English is a borrowing of Italian Montenegro, itself either < Italian regional (Venice) monte negro black mountain, or < the corresponding compound in Dalmatian; compare Serbian Crna Gora, Albanian Mali i Zi, both lit. ‘the black mountain’. The walled seaport of Kotor on the Adriatic coast of Montenegro was a Venetian possession for a period in the early middle ages and again from 1420–1797. In form Montenegrine immediately after the French feminine form.
A. n.
1.
a. A native or inhabitant of Montenegro, a country in south-eastern Europe on the eastern coast of the Adriatic sea.Until the 20th cent., Montenegro was a de facto independent state, ruled by the Petrović-Njegoš dynasty from 1696–1918. It was absorbed into the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes (later Yugoslavia) after the end of the First World War (1914–18). In 1991–2 all constituent republics of Yugoslavia except Serbia and Montenegro seceded, causing the Wars of Yugoslav Succession (1991–5). The remaining part of Yugoslavia was renamed Serbia and Montenegro in 2003, and separated into two independent states in 2006.
