单词 neyar
释义

neyarn.

Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: neigh v., -ar suffix3.
Etymology: Origin uncertain; perhaps < neigh v. + -ar suffix3, on an analysis of classical Latin hinnulus (see hinny n.1) in the source translated in quot. 1577 (Heresbach's Latin text is taken almost verbatim from Pliny Nat. Hist. 8. 172) as < hinnīre whinny v. + -ulus -ulus suffix. N.E.D. (1906) entered this under Neyard, with a version of the same quot. taken from the 1586 edition, showing the form Neyards (on substitution of -ard for -ar see -ard suffix).
Obsolete. rare.
= hinny n.1
ΘΚΠ
