Etymology: < French corrosif, Old French corosif, -ive (14th cent. in Littré). The stress being originally on the third syllable, and afterwards on the first, the second was obscure, and its vowel was represented by e , i , a , and at length lost, giving the form corsive adj.¹ and n. Since the 17th cent. etymological influence has caused the prevalence of corrosive with stress on the second syllable, as in corrode, corrosion; this is found in Milton 1667.The form corrasive has occasionally been taken as a derivative of Latin rādĕre to scrape, and distinguished fromcorrosive.1633 T. Adams Comm. 2 Peter (ii. 9) 705 They are our corrosives, corrasives, used onely to pare off our excrements.1656 T. Blount Glossographia Corrasive (from corrado), which scrapes together, shaves or spoils: This word is many times mistaken for Corrosive, from Corrodo.
