組成From Middle English uryne, from Latin ūrīna, going all the way back to an ancient root *woh₁-r̥ meaning "water, liquid, milk". That same very old root is behind udder — the part of a cow that gives milk. Before Latin arrived, English used its own word, hland; it has almost vanished, surviving only as lant.
