alopecia 的詞源

alopecia(n.)

14世紀晚期, allopicia,“脫髮”,也是一種涉及面部脫髮的麻風病形式,源自中世紀拉丁語 alopecia,來自希臘語 alōpekia,一種皮膚病,也是 alōpekiasis,來自 alōpēxalōpekos “狐狸”。也稱爲 fox-sickness。通常被解釋爲從動物患疥瘡的易感性轉移到人類狀況。

The term alopekia is derived from [alōpēx], a fox, and would seem to be intended to represent a kind of baldness with scattered hairs, which we meet with in animals suffering under the mange—for example, the canine genus, of which the fox is an example. [Medical Times and Gazette, Oct. 22, 1870]
術語 alopekia 源自[alōpēx],狐狸,似乎旨在代表一種散在毛髮的禿髮,在患有疥瘡的動物中我們遇到這種情況,例如犬科,其中狐狸就是一個例子。[《醫學時報和公報》,1870年10月22日]

其他理論認爲它被命名爲“因爲狐狸被認爲比其他四足動物更早失去毛髮”[霍布林的“醫學術語詞典”]。

Burne the heade of a great Ratte and myngle it wyth the droppynge of a Beare or of a hogge & anointe the head, it heleth the desease called Allopicia. [Humphrey Llwyd, "The Treasury of Healthe," 1585]
燒一個大老鼠的頭,與熊或豬的滴水混合,塗抹頭部,可以治療所謂的 allopicia 疾病。[亨弗萊·盧伊德,《健康寶庫》,1585年]
