leaved の語源・成り立ち Etymology
古英語 lēaf（葉）に由来する形容詞的過去分詞で、「葉のある」状態を表す。leave（去る）の過去形とは異なり、植物の「葉」に接尾辞 -ed が付いた形。関連語：leaf（葉）、leafy（葉の多い）。broad-leaved（広葉の）のように複合語で使われることが多い。
In this adjectival use, leaved is formed from the noun leaf and the suffix -ed, which can mean “provided with” or “having,” as in winged. Leaf comes from Old English lēaf. Leaved is therefore historically and grammatically separate from the past tense of leave meaning “depart.” That verb has the irregular past and past-participle form left. The adjective occurs especially in compounds such as broad-leaved.
