中文詞源
vitriol 藍礬，硫酸鹽，尖刻無情的話
來自拉丁語vitrum,玻璃，鏡子，銅鏡，詞源同vitreous,后用于指硫化鐵，藍礬，可能因為其顏色相似而得名。該物質(zhì)加熱后分離出硫酸，因此，引申詞義尖酸的，尖刻的。
英文詞源
- vitriol (n.)
- late 14c., "sulphate of iron," from Old French vitriol (13c.), from Medieval Latin vitriolum "vitriol," noun use of neuter of vitriolus, variant of Late Latin vitreolus "of glass," from Latin vitreus "of glass, glassy," from vitrum "glass" (see vitreous). So called from its glassy appearance in certain states. Meaning "bitter or caustic feelings" first attested 1769, in reference to the corrosive properties of vitriol (when heated it produces sulfuric acid, formerly called oil of vitriol).
