英语词汇hamal的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

词汇	hamal
词源	Hamal. The name of the star Hamal in the constellation Aries (the ram) is an example of a word that comes to us from an- cient Sumerian, which flourished over 5,000 years ago and dates back even further than that. Hamal derives from the Ara- bic al-Hamal, “the full-grown lamb,” which is a modified form of the Sumerian mul LULIM, which means “the constellation of the lamb.” Thus fragments of the Sumerian survive, as they do in the names of a few other stars.
