aluminousadj.

Brit.

/əˈl(j)uːmᵻnəs/, U.S.

/əˈlumənəs/

Forms: late Middle English– aluminous, 1600s alumenous, 1600s–1700s alluminous.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin alūminōsus.

Etymology: < classical Latin alūminōsus containing alum < alūmin- , alūmen alum n.¹ + -ōsus -ous suffix. Compare Middle French, French alumineux (1478 in eaue alumineuse in a translation of Chauliac; compare quot. ?a1425). Compare alumed adj. With aluminous water in some quotations at sense 1 compare alum water n. and also early uses of alum v. In sense 2 after alumina n.

1. Infused or treated with alum; containing alum. Also: of the nature of or characteristic of alum. Now chiefly historical.
