detritus词根词源？

Question

如题所述

Answer 1

detritus (n.)
1795, "process of erosion," from Latin detritus "a wearing away," from detri-, stem of detere "wear away" (see detriment). Geological sense of "matter produced by erosion" is 1802, probably from French detritus.
【名词】碎石，[地质] 岩屑
源自1795年,表示“侵蚀的过程,”来源于拉丁语detritus，碎屑。其中前缀detri—表示“磨损”,词干detere的意义为“磨损”(见detriment，损害)。地质学上表示“侵蚀产生的物质”，1802年出现，可能来源于法语的detritus，碎屑。
