[[starch]] (Dsc.).<br />Derivatives: <b class="b3">ἀμυλιδωτόν</b> [[kind of chiton]] (starched?) (Hermipp.); formation like <b class="b3">ἁλυσιδωτός</b>, <b class="b3">χειριδωτός</b> (Schwyzer 503 : 4, Chantr. Form. 305).<br />Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]X [probably]<br />Etymology: Starch is made from [[unground]] grain, so from <b class="b3">μύλη</b> (cf. <b class="b3">ἄμυλον στερρόν</b>, <b class="b3">ἄκλαστον</b> EM), with negative <b class="b3">ἀ-</b>. However, we expect [[unground]], not [[having no mill]]; it seems rather doubtful that this expression would become the normal expression for [[starch]]. Lat. loan word [[amulum]] > Fr. [[amidon]]. | ||
