中文詞源
arable 可耕的
來自PIE *are, 耕作。
英文詞源
- arable (adj.)
- early 15c., "suitable for plowing" (as opposed to pasture- or wood-land), from Old French arable (12c.), from Latin arabilis, from arare "to plow," from PIE *are- "to plow" (cognates: Greek aroun, Old Church Slavonic orja, Lithuanian ariu "to plow;" Gothic arjan, Old English erian, Middle Irish airim, Welsh arddu "to plow;" Old Norse artr "a plow"). By late 18c. it replaced native erable, from Old English erian "to plow," from the same PIE source.
