单词 udder
释义

uddern.

Brit. /ˈʌdə/, U.S. /ˈədər/
Forms: α. Old English udr-, Middle English vddre, Middle English vddyr (1500s Scottish vdyr), Middle English–1600s vdder (1500s vtter, odder), 1500s– udder; Middle English–1500s uther (1800s Scottish), 1500s other. β. Middle English iddyr, 1500s ydder.
Etymology: Old English úder (once), = Old Saxon ûdar , ûder- , Middle Low German (Low German) ûder , Middle Dutch ūder , uyder (Dutch uier , uijer , West Flemish eur ; compare West Frisian ûr teat), Old High German ûtar (and ûtiro ), Middle High German ûter and iuter (German euter ) < Old Germanic *ūđr- , = Greek οὖθαρ , Sanskrit ūdhar , -as (also ūdhan ), Latin ūber . By unexplained consonant change the corresponding Old Norse form is júgr ewer n.3, yure n. It is doubtful whether an Old Germanic variant, or an entirely different stem, is represented by Old Frisian iader (East Frisian jader, jæder, North Frisian jidder, etc., West Frisian jaer), older Dutch jadder (dialect jaar), Old Saxon geder, Middle Low German geder, jeder (Low German jidder, judder). In English the original long vowel has been regularly shortened before the consonant-group -der.
