释义

sorrowyadj.

Brit. /ˈsɒrəʊi/, U.S. /ˈsɔrəwi/, /ˈsɑrəwi/
Forms: Middle English sorewi, Middle English sorewy, 1800s– sorrowy.
Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: sorrow n., -y suffix1.
Etymology: < sorrow n. + -y suffix1. Compare earlier sorrowful adj.Earlier currency (in sense ‘distressed, grieved’; compare sorrowful adj. 1) is perhaps shown by the following example (unless the form is to be interpreted as a scribal error; compare variant reading):eOE King Ælfred tr. Gregory Pastoral Care (Hatton) (1871) xxxiii. 227 Ac ðonne se diobul hæfð ðone ærran gewunnenne,..ðonne went he mid ealle cræfte ongen ðæs oðres geðyld, ðe him ðonne giet wiðwinð, & bið suiðe sorig [perh. for sorhig; eOE Junius sarig], forðæm he on ðæm forman gefeohte hiene ne meahte ofsceotan mid ðæm bismere, ðe he ðurh ðone oðerne him to sende. Apparently re-formed in the 19th cent.
