resinn.adj.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).
