tussoren.

Brit.

/ˈtʌsɔː/,

/ˈtʌsə/, U.S.

/ˈtəsɔr/,

/ˈtəsər/

Forms: Also 1600s tussre, tessar, tessur, 1800s tasar, tassar, tussur, – tussar; 1700s–1800s tusseh, tussah, tusha.

Origin: A borrowing from Hindi. Etymon: Hindi tasar.

Etymology: < Hindi (and Urdu) tasar < Sanskrit tasara (also trasara) shuttle, ‘perhaps from the form of the cocoon’ (Yule & Burnell). Of the various spellings of this word the type tussar, -er, -ur represents most exactly the Hindi original. The forms tussah, -eh, though frequently employed in works dealing specially with India, are due to some misunderstanding. The prevailing form in ordinary use is now tussore (probably after Indian place-names such as Mysore), to which the pronunciation /təˈsɔə(r)/ is frequently given. N.E.D. (1916) enters this under the double headword tusser, tussore and gives the pronunciation as (tɒ̆·səɹ) /ˈtəsər/, (tɒ̆sō^ə·ɹ) /təˈsɔə(r)/.

a. A coarse brown silk (furnished by Antheræa mylitta and other species of silkworm) made in and imported from India. Also elliptical a dress made of this.
