单词 meresauce
释义

meresaucen.

Brit. /ˈmɪəsɔːs/, U.S. /ˈmɪrˌsɔs/, /ˈmɪrˌsɑs/
Forms: late Middle English mersaus, late Middle English mersause, late Middle English mire sauce, late Middle English myresawse, late Middle English mersauute (probably transmission error), late Middle English 1900s– meresauce, 1500s mearsauce, 1500s mere sauce, 1500s mere-sawce, 1600s meer sauce, 1600s (1900s historical) meare sauce.
Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; probably modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: mere n.1, sauce n.
Etymology: < mere n.1 + sauce n., probably after Old French salmuire saline solution (11th cent.; Middle French, French saumure ) < post-classical Latin salimuria , salemoria (6th cent.) < classical Latin sal salt (see salt n.1) + muria brine used for pickling (see muriatic adj.). With the transposition of elements compare vert-sauce n., and Anglo-Norman mirsaude salt, brine.The post-classical Latin formation salimuria, salemoria may be after ancient Greek ἁλμυρίς salt substance. Compare Spanish salmuera (c1250), Italian salamoia (a1320), Portuguese salmoura (16th cent. as salmoira < Spanish); also Old English sælmerige. Forms in mi- and my- are probably after Old French salmuire or the simplex muire saline solution.
Now historical.
Brine used for pickling and marinading.
