“薰衣草,薄荷科的芳香植物”,源于公元1300年的盎格鲁-法语 lavendre,古法语 lavendre “薰衣草植物”,源于中世纪拉丁语 lavendula “薰衣草”(10世纪),可能源于拉丁语 lividus “发青的,苍白的”(见 livid)。如果是这样,它可能与法语 lavande 、意大利语 lavanda “洗涤”(源于拉丁语 lavare “洗涤”; 源于 PIE 词根 *leue- “洗涤”)有关,因为它被用来为洗过的织物增香和作为沐浴香水。
形容词意为“淡紫色的,薰衣草花的颜色”,始于1840年; 作为名词表示颜色意义,始于1882年。一个相同的中古英语单词意为“洗衣女工,洗衣妇女”; 此外,显然还表示“妓女,娼妓; 营垒随从”,并在13世纪初作为姓氏出现。
Noun Middle English lavendre, from Anglo-French, from Medieval Latin lavandula
