单词 tansy
释义

tansyn.

Brit. /ˈtanzi/, U.S. /ˈtænzi/
Forms: Middle English tanesey, Middle English–1700s tansie, Middle English–1800s tansey, 1500s tansye, tansay, taunsey, 1600s tanzy, 1600s–1700s tanzey, Middle English– tansy.
Etymology: < Old French tanesie (13th cent.), tanoisie, tenasie, modern French tanaisie, aphetic form of athanasie ‘the hearbe Tansie’ (Cotgrave), < medieval Latin athanasia tansy, < Greek ἀθανασία immortality. Compare also Italian atanási ‘Tansie or siluerwort’ (Florio 1611), atanásia the herb tansy (Baretti 1824), Portuguese atanasia or athanasia , the herb tansy. Hatzfeld & Darmesteter mention also a medieval Latin tanasia , but without reference. But apart from this it seems clear that Old French tanesie was aphetic for atanesie , the name probably referring to the long persistence of the flowers: compare quot. 1597 at sense 1; also everlasting adj., n., and adv. and French immortelle. Medieval Latin had also the name Tanacētum (now the botanical generic name) with the variants tanesetum, tansetum, tanicetum. Tanezatum and athanacetum (c1250) are also cited by Burgess. These seem to show that athanacetum and tanesetum were latinized formations < Old French tanesie, although the force of the suffix is not clear.
1. An erect herbaceous plant, Tanacetum vulgare, N.O. Compositæ, tribe Corymbiferæ, growing about two feet high, with deeply cut and divided leaves, and terminal corymbs of yellow rayless button-like flowers; all parts of the plant have a strong aromatic scent and bitter taste.Formerly much used in medicine as a stomachic, and in cookery. curled tansy, a variety with curled leaves, is used, like parsley, for garnishing dishes.
