单词 plessite
释义

plessiten.

Brit. /ˈplɛsʌɪt/, U.S. /ˈplɛˌsaɪt/
Origin: A borrowing from German. Etymon: German Plessit.
Etymology: < German Plessit (K. Reichenbach 1861, in Annalen der Physik 104 269) < pless- (see note) + -it -ite suffix1. Compare French †plessite (1869 in Littré).Reichenbach refers to ‘πλέω, πλέσσω voll machen, füllen’, apparently in error for ancient Greek πλήθειν to be full (compare ancient Greek πλήσσειν to strike, classical Latin pleō I fill, plēre to fill). Compare German Fülleisen, literally ‘fill-iron’ (1861 or earlier, e.g. in Reichenbach's article cited above; so called because it forms the ground-mass or filling of some iron meteorites). The name plessite had earlier been used in 1868 by J. D. Dana Syst. Mineral. (ed. 5) 73, for a variety of gersdorffite described by the Austrian chemist Franz Pless.
Mineralogy.
