单词 omasum
释义

omasumn.

Brit. /əʊˈmeɪsəm/, U.S. /oʊˈmeɪs(ə)m/
Inflections: Plural omasums, omasa.
Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin omāsum.
Etymology: < classical Latin omāsum tripe, probably a loanword from Gaulish. Compare French omase third stomach of a ruminant (1611 in Cotgrave glossed ‘the thicke, and fattie part of a Bullockes paunch;..Tripe, or Chitter ling’), Italian omaso third stomach of a ruminant (1561).The earliest examples in English show uncertainty about which stomach the classical Latin word originally referred to.
Originally: a thick or fat part of a ruminant's stomach. Later: the third and smallest stomach of a ruminant, containing numerous tightly packed leaves or laminae; cf. manyplies n. 2a, psalterium n. 4.
