单词 stauracin
释义

stauracinn.

Etymology: < late Latin stauracinus (also stauracium and stauracin indecl.).According to Du Cange s.v. Storax, the correct form is storacinus , an adjective meaning ‘of the colour of storax’; see the quot. 1870 from Papias (11th cent.) Du Cange. The explanation cited below, based on a supposed derivation < Greek *σταυράκιον diminutive of σταυρός cross, was proposed by the Bollandists, but rejected by the Benedictine editors of Du Cange. The word has apparently no real existence in English, but an attempt has been made to thrust it into the text of Marlowe Faustus 369 (iv. 17) as an ‘emendation’ for staues acre.Previous versions of the OED give the stress as: ˈstauracin.
historical. rare. Apparently only attested in dictionaries or glossaries.
‘A silken stuff figured with small crosses.’
