英文詞源
- bran
- bran: [13] English borrowed bran from Old French bran, but its ultimate source is unclear. Modern French bran means ‘excrement’, and if this had always been a part of the word’s makeup it might have been possible to suggest a Celtic origin, perhaps a Gaulish *brenno- (Welsh braen and Irish brean both mean ‘manure’), but English bran appears never to have meant anything but ‘cereal husks’. It may ultimately be connected with burn.
=> burn - bran (n.)
- c. 1300, "the husk of wheat, barley, etc., separated from the flour after grinding," from Old French bren "bran, scurf, scales, feces" (12c., Modern French bran), perhaps connected with Gaulish *brenno- "manure," or with burn (v.). The word also was used 16c. in English for "dandruff flakes."
