释义

adjointn.adj.

Brit. /ˈadʒɔɪnt/, U.S. /ˈæˌdʒɔɪnt/
Forms: 1500s adioint, 1500s–1600s adjoynt, 1600s– adjoint.
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymons: French adjoint, adjoindre.
Etymology: < Middle French, French adjoint (noun) helper, assistant (end of the 13th cent. in Old French), ally, associate (1314 as ajoint ), thing which is joined or connected to something else, addition (1555 as †adjoinct in P. de La Ramée Dialectique, the source cited in quot. 1574; compare classical Latin adiunctum adjunct n.), associate member of the French Academy of Sciences (1716; now historical), associate official who assists a maire (1795), (adjective) designating a teacher or lecturer who serves in an assistant or part-time capacity (1740 or earlier; now chiefly in Canadian sources as a calque on the U.S. English use), specific uses of the past participle of adjoindre adjoin v. Compare earlier adjunct n., adjunct adj.In senses A. 3 and B. after the specific mathematical use (in équation adjointe : 1815 or earlier) of French adjoint, adjective. Some early sources specifically attribute the mathematical uses to J.-L. Lagrange; compare e.g. quot. 1888 at sense B. 3, and also:1889 T. Craig Treat. Linear Differential Equations I. xiii. 471 When Chapter I was written..I had not seen Forsyth's memoir, and had not been able to find an adopted English term for Lagrange's ‘équation adjointe’, so I used the word adjunct, suggested by the German ‘adjungirte’, and not unlike the French ‘adjointe’. It seems better now, however, to employ the word associate, or, when speaking simply of Lagrange's ‘équation adjointe’, the word adjoint.1889 T. Craig Treat. Linear Differential Equations I. xiii. 478 The typical variable of the set is the variable of the Lagrangian adjoint equation. However, use of French équation adjointe by Lagrange has not been traced. N.E.D. (1884) also records a non-naturalized pronunciation (adʒoaṅ·) /adʒwɛ̃/ for sense A. 2b in French-speaking contexts.
