auncestrieとは 意味・読み方・使い方

語源

Borrowed from Anglo-Norman auncestrie (continental Old French ancesserie, ancessorie); by surface analysis, auncestre +‎ -ie. First attested in c. 1400.

As in auncestre, forms such as /ˌa(u̯)nsɛˈtriː(ə)/ reflect either dissimilatory loss of /s/ or borrowing of Romance forms with preconsonantal loss of /s/.

発音
