中文释义

英文释义

形容词 adj.
  1. Of or relating to etymology. not-comparable
    — But it goes without saying that this etymological argument in and of itself has no significance, since a word taken from a dead language may resultantly assume a meaning independent of its etymology.
  2. Consistent with its etymological characteristics (in historical usage or the source language). comparable
    — “Connexion” is the etymological (ie, “correct”) spelling. That is to say, our word is derived from an actual Latin noun, cf. deflexion, inflexion, and reflexion. […] And it might make life easier to abolish the letter “x”. But why should we cut off the fascinating roots of our words? I should carry on preferring “connexion”.
