köken: From trouwen (“to wed”) + ring (“ring”). Compare German Trauring. Though not the original interpretation, the word may alternatively be understood as trouw (“fidelity”) + ring.
engagement ring or wedding ring (ring exchanged between bride and groom) · alliance (pact or treaty between countries or parties made to advance common goals) · alliance (countries or parties which form an alliance)
çekim: çoğul alianças
köken: Borrowed from French alliance. By surface analysis, aliar + -ança.
köken: Compound of 結婚 (kekkon, “marriage”) + 指輪 (yubiwa, “(finger) ring”). First cited to 1948. Wedding rings were not part of Japanese tradition prior to closer contact with European-based cultures, with the practice and the term only becoming more common with greater US cultural influence during the post-war period.
