词源

词源 1
From French Rhodes, from Latin Rhodus, from Ancient Greek Ῥόδος (Rhódos), of uncertain etymology. Possibilities include a pre-Greek name (cf. Phoenician 𐤄𐤓𐤏𐤃 (hrʿd), "snake"), ῥόδον (rhódon, “rose”), and ῥοιά (rhoiá, “pomegranate”).
词源 2
From rodes, the plural form of Middle English rode, from Old English rod, rodu.
The Rh- form—a 16th century spelling modification—was created by analogy with the unrelated Rhodes, Greece.
