单词 resin
释义

resinn.adj.

Brit. /ˈrɛzɪn/, U.S. /ˈrɛz(ə)n/
Forms:

α. Middle English recyn, Middle English recyne, Middle English resyne, Middle English reysyn, Middle English–1500s resyn, Middle English–1700s resine, 1500s– resin, 1700s–1800s rezin; N.E.D. (1908) also records a form Middle English reysen.

β. Middle English–1600s resina.

Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from French. Partly a borrowing from Latin. Etymons: French reisine; Latin rēsīna.
Etymology: < Anglo-Norman reisine, resin, Anglo-Norman and Middle French resine (French résine , †resine ) sticky substance secreted by various trees (end of the 12th cent. in Anglo-Norman; the sense ‘substance with natural properties resembling those of resin’ is apparently not paralleled in French until later: 1694 (in resine de jalap ) in the source translated in quot. 1712 at sense A. 2) and its etymon classical Latin rēsīna sticky substance secreted by various trees, probably borrowed, like ancient Greek ῥητίνη (in same sense), from a non-Indo-European language. Compare Old Occitan resina (13th cent.), Catalan resina (13th cent.), Spanish resina (early 13th cent.), Portuguese resina (13th cent.), Italian resina (a1292). Compare rosin n., and also perrosin n. and its French etymon. With the use as adjective compare earlier resinose adj., resinous adj., resiny adj.It has been suggested that the following Old English gloss to a lemma of uncertain meaning might represent an early borrowing of Latin rēsīna (see H. D. Meritt Some of Hardest Glosses in Old English (1968) 80):OE Brussels Gloss. in T. Wright & R. P. Wülcker Anglo-Saxon & Old Eng. Vocab. (1884) I. 300 Pissli, reosan.However, the gloss has alternatively (and more convincingly) been explained as an error for peosan (plural), an otherwise unattested variant form of pease n. (see P. Bierbaumer Der botanische Wortschatz des Altenglischen (1979) III. 193).
A. n.
1.
a. A highly viscous, sticky, flammable, typically aromatic substance secreted by certain trees (esp. conifers, notably fir and pine) and other plants; (as a count noun) a particular substance of this kind; spec. such a substance which is insoluble in water (and so distinguished from a gum).Resin commonly consists of terpenoid hydrocarbons, together with other organic compounds. Various forms of resin are harvested, often by making incisions into the bark of the tree, and used in varnishes, adhesives, medicines, and other products. Amber is a kind of fossilized resin.accaroid, copaiba, copal, gum, kauri, pine resin, etc.: see the first element.Earliest in resin gum n. at Compounds 1a.
