单词 progenitrice
释义

progenitricen.

Brit. /prə(ʊ)ˈdʒɛnᵻtrᵻs/, U.S. /prəˈdʒɛnətrəs/, /proʊˈdʒɛnətrəs/
Forms: 1600s– progenitrice; also Scottish pre-1700 progenetryse, pre-1700 progenitrys.
Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin progenitrix.
Etymology: < post-classical Latin progenitrix progenitrix n.: see -trice suffix. Compare French progénitrice (not dated in dictionaries of French), Italian progenitrice (1532 in the passage translated in quot. 1755, or earlier). Compare earlier progenitrix n., which has an identical plural form (hence quot. c1487 at progenitrix n. could theoretically be interpreted as showing instead the plural of this word).
rare.
= progenitrix n.
