单词 sunshade
释义

sunshaden.

Brit. /ˈsʌnʃeɪd/, U.S. /ˈsənˌʃeɪd/
Forms: see sun n.1 and shade n.
Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: sun n.1, shade n.
Etymology: < sun n.1 + shade n.The sense of the isolated attestation in Old English (see quot. OE at sense 1) is not entirely certain. It appears to be translating classical Latin flammeolum bridal veil, perhaps in its post-classical Latin sense ‘kerchief, headscarf’, although this is not securely attested until later (early 13th cent.; compare shade n. 11b, shadow n. 13b). However, it has alternatively been argued that it merely translates the Latin gloss umbra solis , taking no account of the main lemma, in which case the sense could be ‘shadow cast by the sun’ (attested for the genitive phrase in classical Latin) or ‘shelter from the sun’ (compare sense 2 and shade n. 8). Unfortunately, the manner of compilation of the Harley Glossary makes it difficult to assess the relative likelihood of these alternatives. Re-formed in the 18th cent.
1. Perhaps: a kerchief, a headscarf. Obsolete.In quot. OE apparently translating Latin flammeolum, which in classical Latin has the sense ‘bridal veil’, but the sense of the Old English gloss is uncertain; see discussion in etymology section.
