释义

whitedadj.

Brit. /ˈwʌɪtᵻd/, U.S. /ˈ(h)waɪdᵻd/
Forms: Old English gehwit, late Old English iwitad, early Middle English ihwited, early Middle English yhuited, Middle English whitid, Middle English– whited, 1500s whitted, 1500s whyghted, 1500s whytyd, 1500s–1600s whyted.
Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: white v.1, -ed suffix1, white adj., -ed suffix2.
Etymology: Originally < white v.1 + -ed suffix1. In later use also partly < white adj. + -ed suffix2, and partly < white n. + -ed suffix2.In the Old English form gehwit with assimilatory loss of the ending. In sense 1b ultimately after Hellenistic Greek κεκονιαμένος (in τάϕος κεκονιαμένος (New Testament: Matthew 23:27): see whited sepulchre at sepulchre n. 1b). Compare Old English behwīt in this sense ( < be- prefix + white v.1 + -ed suffix1).
1.
a. Covered or coated with white; whitewashed.Quot. OE derives ultimately from Isidore, Origines 19. 24. 6 and refers to whitening a toga by means of clay (cf. quot. 1600 and cretated adj.). As clay was widely used as a kind of bleach as well as a colouring agent, it is uncertain whether this sense or sense 2 was intended by the Old English glossator.
