A work in progress, presently with preliminary A through R, and S, and with S (in part) through Z essentially completed. jardin”, in Trésor de la langue française informatisé [Digitized Treasury of the French Language ], 2012.

Persian: پَرْدیس‎ (fa) ( pardis ), بوسْتان‎ (fa) ( bustân ), بُسْتان‎ (fa) ( bostân ), پارْک‎ (fa) ( pârk )Stefan has a practical no nonsense approach to gardening, obviously based on many years of experience in horticulture, and particularly vegetable growing. No question is too trivial or basic for him to give an answer which explains in simple terms what new gardeners need to know, while providing more in depth information for more experienced growers. Hebrew: גַּנְּתָא‎ f ( gannəṯā ), גִּנְּתָא‎ f ( ginnəṯā ), גַּנָּא‎ m ( gannā ), גִּנָּא‎ m ( ginnā ) Syriac: ܓܢܬܐ‎ f ( gannəṯā, ginnəṯā ) let us praise Her so that She will admit us to the garden of Her Son (=Heaven) and save us from the great fire of Hell. Greek: κηπεύω (el) ( kipévo ), καλλιεργώ κήπο ( kalliergó kípo ), περιποιούμαι κήπο (peripiúme cípo) (cultivate or farm a garden) Cantonese: 花園 / 花园 ( faa 1 jyun 4-2 ) Dungan: хуайүан ( huayüan ) Mandarin: 花園 / 花园 (zh) ( huāyuán ) Min Dong: 花園 / 花园 ( huă-huòng ) Min Nan: 花園 / 花园 (zh-min-nan) ( hoe-hn̂g / hoa-hûiⁿ ) Wu: 花園 / 花园 ( 1ho-yoe )

garden ( third-person singular simple present gardens, present participle gardening, simple past and past participle gardened) Romansch: curtin m ( Rumantsch Grischun, Puter, Vallader ), curtgin m ( Sursilvan ), curtgegn m ( Sutsilvan ), curtgign m ( Surmiran ) From Old French jardin ( “ garden, enclosure ” ), probably from Vulgar Latin or early Gallo-Romance hortus gardinus, from Old Frankish *gardin, oblique case of *gardo ( “ enclosure, yard ” ), from Proto-Germanic *gardô ( “ enclosure, garden, house ” ), from Proto-Indo-European *gʰordʰos ( “ hedge, enclosure ” ), from *gʰerdʰ- ( “ court, yard ” ). I ſuppoſe the North ſide of the water to be the beſt ſide for your garden, that it may haue the comfort of the South Sunne to lye vpon it and face it, and the dwelling houſe to bee aboue it, to defend the cold windes and froſts both from your herbes, and flowers, and early fruits. Latin Plant Names: Are They Descriptive & Helpful Or Smoke And Mirrors? Let Me Explain What They Mean. Latin names are usually made up of two parts as a minimum, though sometimes they are a it longer. This is called the binomial naming system and is a highly descriptive way to describe plants.And they aren’t so difficult to understand once you remember many words we use everyday come from Latin. So where a plant has the word orientalis as part of its Latin name you’ll recognise it’s something to do with the orient or east. And if the plant is obesus you might guess it’s a bit fat. Likewise a plant with the name equinus is something to do with equines (horses). Often these words will be linked to others to tell us which part is obesus or equinus.

Blow on my garden [speaking of her genitalia], so the spices of it may flow out. Let my Beloved come into His garden [her pubic area] and eat His pleasant fruits. Behind the tangled garden of microphones that had sprouted on the lectern, Goldwater spoke softly and casually about his family. The use of Latin plant names can be confusing to the home gardener, sometimes even intimidating. There is, however, a very good reason to use Latin plant names. Primping and pruning the secret garden might seem like a totally 21st century concept, but the fact is women have gotten into below-the-belt grooming since before the Bronze Age. In binomial Latin, the genus is a noun and the species is a descriptive adjective for it. Take, for example, Acer is the Latin plant name (genus) for maple. Since there are many different types of maple, another name (the species) is added too for positive identification. So, when confronted with the name Acer rubrum ( red maple), the gardener will know he/she is looking at a maple with vibrant, red, fall leaves. This is helpful as Acer rubrum remains the same regardless of whether the gardener is in Iowa or elsewhere in the world.Fascinating feature spreads retell the adventures of important plant hunters such as Sir Joseph Banks and Alexander von Humboldt, and explain how their discoveries affect the way our gardens look today. Individual plants are also profiled throughout, showing how their names can illuminate their hidden histories.

Best of all it is used globally so the confusion created by local names or foreign languages is no longer a problem. From Middle French jardin, from Old French jardin, from Medieval Latin jardinus ( “ garden ” ), from Old Frankish *gardin, oblique case of *gardō ( “ enclosure, yard ” ) (compare also Old French jart ( “ garden ” )), from Proto-Germanic *gardô ( “ enclosure, garden, house ” ), from Proto-Indo-European *gʰordʰos ( “ hedge, enclosure ” ), from Proto-Indo-European *gʰerdʰ- ( “ court, yard ” ).

Latin words for the genus or species of a plant are descriptive terms used to describe a specific type of plant and its characteristics. Using Latin plant names helps to avert confusion caused by the often contradictory and multiple common names an individual may have. There are so many plant names to learn as it is, so why do we use Latin names too? And exactly what are Latin plant names anyway? Simple. Scientific Latin plant names are used as a means of classifying or identifying specific plants. Let’s learn more about the meaning of Latin plant names with this short but sweet botanical nomenclature guide. What are Latin Plant Names? verifyErrors }}{{ message }}{{ /verifyErrors }}{{
