词组 | propellant, propellent |
释义 | propellant, propellent The editors of the OED entered only the -ent spelling, but three quarters of their citations were spelled -ant. The OED Supplement says the -ant spelling is now the most common for both adjective and noun. Our evidence shows that the word is used primarily in technical contexts and is much more often a noun than an adjective. The -ant spelling predominates. Our most recent evidence for the -ent spelling comes primarily from British sources. |
