释义

pungitiveadj.

Forms: late Middle English pungityue, 1500s–1600s pungitiue, 1600s–1700s pungitive; Scottish pre-1700 pungetyfe, pre-1700 pungetyve, pre-1700 pungetywe, pre-1700 pungitiue, pre-1700 pungitive, pre-1700 pungitiwe, pre-1700 pungityue, pre-1700 pungityve.
Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin pungitivus.
Etymology: < post-classical Latin pungitivus that pierces or punctures, that stings or bites, prickly (frequently from 12th cent. in British sources), (of utterance or expression) sharp, cutting (frequently from late 12th cent. in British sources), (of pain) piercing, sharp, biting (frequently from c1200 in British sources; 1363 in Chauliac), (of a flavour) pungent (13th cent. in a British source), irregularly < classical Latin pungere punge v. + -itīvus (in e.g. fugitīvus fugitive adj.); compare -ive suffix. Compare Middle French, French pongitif, †pungitif (c1330; now chiefly in medical contexts, designating a kind of pain (1575 in this sense)), Spanish pungitivo (15th cent.)The expected Latin formation would be *punctivus, which is not attested.
Obsolete.
That pricks or stings; sharp to the senses; figurative (chiefly Scottish) keen, biting.
