释义

pimentaryn.adj.

Forms: Middle English pymentarie.
Origin: Formed within English, by derivation; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: piment n., -ary suffix1.
Etymology: < piment n. + -ary suffix1, after classical Latin pigmentārius, noun and adjective (see pigmentary adj. and n.). Compare pigmentary n., pigmentary adj.A parallel formation is apparently shown by Older Scots pimendar (see Dict. Older Sc. Tongue at cited word); compare also peimander n. Middle Eng. Dict. at pīmentārīe n. notes that the reading in quot. a13822 at sense A. is altered from spycery mengyng, and hence offers a gloss ‘?the craft of making aromatic unguents’.
Obsolete. rare.
A. n.
A maker or seller of unguents or perfumes. Cf. pigmentary n. 1a.
