larchn.

Brit.

/lɑːtʃ/, U.S.

/lɑrtʃ/

Forms: Also 1500s larche, larshe. β. 1700s larich, larinch.

Etymology: Introduced by Turner (see quot. 1548 for larch-tree n. at Compounds 1), < German lärche < Middle High German lerche , larche < Old High German *lerihha , *larihha , an early adoption (prior to the assibilation of c in Latin) of Latin laricem , larix (whence late Greek λάριξ ): corresponding phonetically to Old Celtic *darik- (Irish dair , genitive darach , Welsh dar ) oak. Other English writers in the 16th cent. adopted the word in the Latin form (see larix n.), sometimes corrupted into larinx; hence apparently some of the dialectal forms given above. Compare further Dutch lariks, and the unexplained forms German lorche, Dutch lorke(boom); also Italian larice, Spanish lárice, Portuguese larico, French (Cotgrave) larege, lareze, medieval Latin laresus.

a. The coniferous tree Abies Larix or Larix europæa, characterized by its tough and durable timber.A native of the Alps, the larch is widely cultivated in Britain. It yields Venetian turpentine, and the bark is used in tanning.
