組成Older English had affodill, from Medieval Latin affodillus, from Latin asphodelus, from Ancient Greek asphódelos — a plant name older than Greek itself. The d- at the front is probably Dutch de affodil (“the affodil”) heard as one word; the Netherlands sent the bulbs. The same kind of split-and-join gave English adder, apron, newt, nickname. Doublet of asphodel.
