oriolen.

Brit.

/ˈɔːrɪəʊl/, U.S.

/ˈɔriˌoʊl/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin Oriolus.

Etymology: < scientific Latin Oriolus, genus name (Linnaeus, Systema Naturæ (ed. 12, 1766) I. 160), after earlier use as the specific name of the golden oriole, Coracias oriolus (Linnaeus, Systema Naturæ (ed. 10, 1758) I. 107) < post-classical Latin oriolus golden oriole (a1446 in a British source; c1150, a1250 in British sources as aureolus ) < classical Latin aureolus golden (see aureola n.). Compare Anglo-Norman oriol, Old French oriol, orïoel (12th cent.; compare Middle French, French loriot), Old Occitan auriol (a1173; c1150 as aureol), auriola (a1150; Occitan auriòl), Spanish oriol (1251), Catalan oriol (1460), Italian oriolo (17th cent.).It is unclear whether the plural form oryoli in the passage below is intended as post-classical Latin or another language. It does not appear to correspond to any passage in Pliny. Compare:c1260 Albertus Magnus De Animalibus (1921) xxiii. xxiv. 1505 Oryoli aves sunt a sono vocis vulgariter sic vocati ut dicit Plinius.

1. Any of various mainly tropical Old World songbirds of the genus Oriolus or the family Oriolidae, noted for the melodious song and brilliant plumage of the males; esp. the golden oriole, O. oriolus, a migratory, arboreal Eurasian oriole the male of which is yellow and black and the female mainly green.
