sulphur 硫，硫磺

来自拉丁语 sulphur,硫，硫磺，可能来自 PIE*swelp,燃烧，扩大形式自 PIE*swel,照射，发光，词源同 swelter,热昏，酷热。

sulphur: sulphur: [14] The origins of Latin sulphur are not known, although it may have links with German schwefel ‘sulphur’. It has spread throughout the Romance languages (French soufre, Italian solfo, and, with the addition of Arabic al ‘the’, Spanish azufre), and has been borrowed into Dutch as sulfer and into English (where it eventually replaced the native brimstone [12], etymologically ‘burning stone’) as sulphur.
sulphur (n.): see sulfur. The form prefered in Britain; however, the spelling's suggestion of a Greek origin is misleading.
