trout heとは 意味・読み方・使い方

語源

Inherited from 古期英語 trēowþ, trīewþ, from Proto-West Germanic *triuwiþu, from Proto-Germanic *triwwiþō; equivalent to trewe +‎ -the (abstract nominal suffix).

The final vowel is generalised from 古期英語 oblique cases, while forms in /iu̯/ reflect the influence of trewe; the usual vocalism in /ɛu̯/, /ɔu̯/ is due to shortening before the consonant cluster /wθ/ in late 古期英語.

発音

• IPA: /ˈtrɔu̯ð(ə)/, /ˈtrɛu̯ð(ə)/, /ˈtriu̯ð(ə)/, /-θ(ə)/
