英文释义

形容词 adj.
  1. Of or relating to foliage; pteroylglutamic, as in folic acid. not-comparable
    — It is especially abundant in green leaves of many kinds, including grass. Because of this fact, and since we have obtained what appears to be a nearly pure chemical entity, we suggest the name folic acid (Latin, folium—leaf).

词源

From Latin folium (“leaf”) + -ic. Coined in 1941 (see quote below).
