单词 clote
释义 I. clote|kləʊt|
Forms: 1 cláte, 3– clote, (4–5 cloote), 7 cloat, 7–9 clots, (cluts, clowts).
[OE. cláte:—OTeut. type *klaitôn-: indicating a pre-Teut. root *gleid- (glid-, gloid-), prob. related to the simpler glei- to stick (see clay).
Of other names for this and similar plants, clete (?:—klaitjôn) and clite (?:—klit- or klît-) evidently belong to the same root; but clithe, and its family (root *glī̆t-) and Ger. klette with its allies (root *glet-) are not connected, at least directly, though like clive and its cognates (root *glibh-) all may be ultimately based on the simpler *glei-, gli-.]
