单词 clod
释义

clodn.

Brit. /klɒd/, U.S. /klɑd/
Forms: So Middle English–; also Middle English–1600s clodde, 1500s clodd.
Etymology: Appears in 14th cent. as a variant of clot n.; after which the two forms were long entirely synonymous, but they have subsequently been differentiated, the typical senses being now respectively as in a clod of earth, and a clot of blood. But Old English had already clod-hamer field-fare, and Clodhangra proper name; clod must be old in Germanic: compare Grimm, kloder , and klod , klot , cited under it. The verb stem glu- , gleu- , in Germanic klu- , kleu- , ‘glomerare’ (see clew n.), would give a noun glu-tó-, whence Old Germanic klu-dó-, Old English clod.
†1. A mass formed by the coagulation of anything liquid, esp. blood. Obsolete (now clot n.)
