mimosa 含羞草
來自拉丁語mimus,模仿，osa-,拉丁語形容詞后綴。因這種草如同羞澀的美女，如果被人的手觸摸到葉子會自動卷起而得名。
英文詞源
- mimosa (n.)
- genus of leguminous shrubs, 1731, coined in Modern Latin (1619) from Latin mimus "mime" (see mime (n.)) + -osa, adjectival suffix (fem. of -osus). So called because some species (including the common Sensitive Plant) fold leaves when touched, seeming to mimic animal behavior. The alcoholic drink (by 1977) is so called from its yellowish color, which resembles that of the mimosa flower.
