释义

sal alembrothn.

Brit. /ˌsal əˈlɛmbrɒθ/, /ˌsal ˈaləmbrɒθ/, U.S. /ˌsæl əˈlɛmbrɑθ/, /ˌsæl ˈæləmbrɑθ/
Forms:

α. Middle English salarbrut, late Middle English sal arbrot, 1600s salebrot.

β. Middle English sal albrut, Middle English 1600s sal albrod.

γ. late Middle English sall alembroke (probably transmission error), late Middle English (in a late copy) 1700s– sal alembroth, 1600s sal alembroke (probably transmission error), 1600s sal lambrot.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymons: Latin sal alebrot, salebrot.
Etymology: < post-classical Latin sal alebrot (13th cent. in a British source; also salebrot, sal lambrot (both 1612 or earlier)) < classical Latin sal salt (see sal n.1) + post-classical Latin alebrot alembroth n., perhaps after Arabic milḥ al-bārūd, literally ‘salt of saltpetre’.In α. forms apparently with assimilation of consonants. With the β. forms compare post-classical Latin alebrodium (1440 in a British source). With the γ. forms compare later alembroth n., and also French sel alembroth (1757 or earlier; 1786 in the source translated in quot. 1788; 1646 or earlier as †sel alembrot), also sel d'alembroth (1746 or earlier).
Chemistry. Now historical.
