madrigal 牧歌

madrigal: madrigal: [16] Etymologically, madrigal denotes a ‘simple song, such as might just have sprung from the mother’s womb’. It comes ultimately from medieval Latin mātricālis ‘simple, primitive’, a derivative of Latin mātrix ‘womb’. (And mātrix itself, source of English matrix [16] and matriculate [16] – etymologically ‘put on a list’, from a later metaphorical use of the Latin noun for ‘list’ – was a derivative of māter ‘mother’.) Mātricālis passed into Italian as madrigale, where it was used as a noun for a ‘simple unaccompanied song’.
=> matriculate, matrix
madrigal (n.): "short love poem," also "part-song for three or more voices," 1580s, from Italian madrigale, probably from Venetian dialect madregal "simple, ingenuous," from Late Latin matricalis "invented, original," literally "of or from the womb," from matrix (genitive matricis) "womb" (see matrix).
