单词 rimple
释义

rimplen.

Brit. /ˈrɪmpl/, U.S. /ˈrɪmp(ə)l/
Forms: Old English hrympel, late Middle English rimpil, late Middle English rymbyle, late Middle English rympyl, late Middle English rympylle, late Middle English–1500s rymple, 1500s– rimple.
Origin: A variant or alteration of another lexical item; perhaps partly modelled on a Dutch lexical item, and perhaps partly modelled on a Middle Low German lexical item. Etymon: -el suffix1.
Etymology: < an ablaut variant (zero-grade) of the Germanic base of Old English hrimpan (see note) + -el suffix1; compare Old High German rumpfusla wrinkle, fold (compare -els suffix). In later use perhaps influenced or reinforced by Middle Dutch rimpel, Middle Low German rimpel, in the same sense (see note). Compare wrimple n., rumple n.2Old English hrimpan to wrinkle, twist, coil (attested only in past participle gehrumpen) is cognate with Middle Dutch rimpen (Dutch †rimpen), Middle Low German rimpen, Old High German rimpfan (past participle girumpfan; Middle High German rimphen; German †rimpfen, now rümpfen), perhaps ultimately < the same Indo-European base as ancient Greek κράμβος a disease in grapes causing them to shrivel. Compare also the derivatives Middle Dutch rimpel (Dutch rimpel), Middle Low German rimpel, both in sense ‘wrinkle’.
Now rare (chiefly U.S. in later use).
1. A wrinkle, a crinkle, a small crease or fold; (also) an undulation. Also figurative.
