单词 plaudite
释义

plauditen.

Brit. /ˈplɔːdᵻtiː/, /ˈplaʊdɪteɪ/, U.S. /ˈplɔdədi/, /ˈplɑdədi/
Forms: 1500s plaudete, 1500s plaudetie, 1500s plaudytie, 1500s–1600s plauditie, 1500s–1600s plaudity, 1500s– plaudite.
Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymons: Latin plauditē, plaudere.
Etymology: < classical Latin plauditē applaud! 2nd plural imperative of plaudere plaud v., the customary appeal for applause made by Roman actors at the end of a play. Compare slightly earlier plause n.Forms in-ity , -itie , -ytie probably reflect early misapprehension of the ending of this word as that of nouns in -ity suffix. Early modern English forms in final -e in prose contexts cannot be distinguished from those of plaudit n. N.E.D. (1907) gives only the pronunciation (plǭ·ditī) /ˈplɔːdɪtiː/.
Now rare.
