单词 astrologia
释义

astrologian.

Brit. /ˌastrəˈləʊdʒɪə/, U.S. /ˌæstrəˈloʊdʒə/
Forms:

α. Middle English astrolgi, Middle English astrologi, Middle English astrologie.

β. Middle English–1500s 1900s– astrologia.

γ. Middle English 1600s–1700s astrologe.

Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from Latin. Partly a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymons: Latin astrologia ; Aristolochia n.
Etymology: Partly < post-classical Latin astrologia (13th cent. in a British source; alteration (after astrologia astrology n.) of aristolochia Aristolochia n.), and partly an alteration (by folk-etymological association with astrology n.) of Aristolochia n. (compare forms with medial -g- at that entry). Compare Old French astrologue (1268 in an apparently isolated attestation).
Now historical.
Originally: any of several medicinal herbs of the genus Aristolochia, formerly used to facilitate childbirth (also called birthwort); esp. A. longa and A. rotunda. In later use also: bistort, Perscaria bistort, formerly believed to promote conception.
