/ɑkˈsæləs/

Inflections: Plural oxalides, oxalises.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymons: Latin oxalid-, oxalis.

Etymology: < classical Latin oxalid-, oxalis sorrel < Hellenistic Greek ὀξαλίς < ancient Greek ὀξύς sour, acid (see oxy- comb. form¹) + -αλίς, suffix forming nouns. Compare Middle French oxalide (1559), French oxalis (1812). In later use, after scientific Latin Oxalis, genus name. N.E.D. (1904) gives only the pronunciation (ǫ·ksălis) /ˈɒksəlɪs/.

Originally: †sorrel, Rumex acetosa (obsolete). In later use: any of the plants constituting the large, cosmopolitan genus Oxalis (family Oxalidaceae), consisting of herbs and shrubs with palmate, typically trifoliate leaves and five-petalled flowers of various colours; esp. wood sorrel, O. acetosella. Also (in form Oxalis): the genus itself.Valid publication of the genus name: Linnaeus Species Plantarum (1753) I. 433.
