Origin & History

Modern English compound: algae (from Latin alga ‘seaweed’) + laden (Old English hladan ‘to load’), meaning ‘loaded with algae’.

आधुनिक अंग्रेज़ी का संयोजन: algae (लैटिन alga ‘समुद्री घास/शैवाल’ से) + laden (पुरानी अंग्रेज़ी hladan ‘लादना/भरना’ से), अर्थ: ‘शैवाल से लदा/भरा हुआ’।

Definition

किसी वस्तु (विशेषकर पानी, चट्टानें, नावें, जाल या तट) पर या उसमें काई/शैवाल की स्पष्ट मात्रा होने का वर्णन करता है, जिससे वह हरी, चिकनी/फिसलनदार या दुर्गंधयुक्त लग सकती है।
