ORIGIN
The English adjective
sudoriferous
comes from Late Latin
sūdōrifer
, literally "sweat-bearing." The Latin suffix
-fer
"carrying, bearing," very familiar in English, comes from the verb
ferre
"to carry, bring, bear," from the common Proto-Indo-European root
bher-
"to carry, bear," source of Sanskrit
bhárati
, Greek
phérein
, Celtic (Old Irish)
biru
, Germanic (English)
bear
, and Slavic (Polish)
bierać
, all meaning "carry." The Latin noun
sūdor
is a derivative of the verb
sūdāre
, from the Proto-Indo-European root
sweid-
,
swoid-
"to sweat" (
swoid-
becomes
sūd-
in Latin). The Germanic derivative of the Proto-Indo-European noun
swoidos
is
swaitaz
, which becomes
swāt
in Old English (English
sweat
).
Sudoriferous
entered English in the late 16th century.
