| 释义 |
‖ stipula|ˈstɪpjʊlə|
Pl. stipulæ, also stipulas.
[mod.L. use of L. stipula, straw, stubble, app. a dim. formation cogn. w. stīpes: see stipes.
The mod. botanical use of the L. word is due to Linnæus, who seems to have misunderstood (or perhaps intentionally given a new interpretation to) a definition which occurs in dictionaries of the 16th and 17th c., and goes back to Isidore Etym. xvii. iii. §18, ‘Stipulæ sunt folia seu vaginæ, quibus culmus ambitur’. Cooper Thes. (1565) has ‘Stipula..the husk that closeth in the straw’, and Fuchs De Hist. Stirp. Comm., Vocum difficilium explicatio, ‘Stipulæ folia sunt culmum ambientia’, which could easily be mistaken for a loose expression of the Linnæan sense.]
