fossoriumとは 意味・読み方・使い方

名詞

fossōrium n (genitive fossōriī or fossōrī); second declension

1. (Late Latin, Early Medieval Latin) a spade, an implement for digging

   Synonym: scudicia

   • early 7th c. CE, Isidore of Seville, Etymologiae sive Origines 20.14.7:

     Scudicia dicta eo, quod circa codicem terram aperiat; et quamvis eius usus in reliquis operibus habeatur, nomen tamen ex codice retinet. hanc alii generaliter fossorium vocant, quasi fovessorium.

     • 1967 translation by K. D. White

       The scudicia is so called because it opens the earth around the base (of the plant); and although it is used for other operations, it still retains its name from the base (codex). Others commonly call it a trenching tool, as if the word were derived from fovea (a hole).

   • c. 1264, Vincent of Beauvais, Speculum doctrinale:

     Sarculum, sarpa vel fossorium

     (please add an English translation of this quotation)

Inflection

Second-declension noun (neuter).
