单词 richelieu
释义

Richelieun.

Brit. /ˈriːʃ(ə)ljəː/, /ˈrɪʃ(ə)ljəː/, U.S. /ˈrɪʃəl(j)u/, /rɪʃəlˈju/
Origin: Apparently from proper names. Etymon: proper name Richelieu.
Etymology: Apparently < the French proper name Richelieu (properly part of the title of the du Plessis family), perhaps after the name of Cardinal Richelieu (Armand-Jean du Plessis, Cardinal and Duc de Richelieu; 1585–1642). Perhaps compare French richelieu, denoting a type of shoe (late 19th cent.; probably < the name of the cardinal).Various attempts have been made to explain the name. One suggestion is that it is a 19th-cent. name arising from the style of lace worn on his surplice by Cardinal Richelieu in portraits; another that it arises from the lace edging the flat collars worn by him; another that it reflects efforts he made to foster French lacemaking. All of these explanations could simply show subsequent rationalizations of the name. O.E.D. Suppl. (1982) gives only the non-naturalized pronunciation (riʃ·lyö) /ˈriːʃljø/.
Needlework.
attributive. Used to designate a form of cut work in which spaces in the fabric are crossed by picoted bars.
