starch 使僵硬,使变硬,上浆,淀粉

来自古英语*stercan,使僵硬,使变硬,来自 Proto-Germanic*starkijan,使变硬,来自 PIE*ster, 僵的,硬的,固定的,词源同 stark,startle,sterile.因过去常用浆糊给布料糊浆使布料变硬,而 淀粉是制浆的重要原料,因而引申词义淀粉。现在中国农村仍然有熬制浆糊贴春联的习俗。

starch (v.)
late 14c., from Old English *stercan (Mercian), *stiercan (West Saxon) "make rigid," found in stercedferhð "fixed, hard, resolute" (related to stearc "stiff"), from Proto-Germanic *starkijan "to make hard" (cognates: German Stärke "strength, starch," Swedish stärka "to starch"), from PIE root *ster- (1) "strong, firm, stiff, rigid" (see stark). Related: Starched; starching.
starch (n.)
