| il viola è il mio colore preferito... |
I never questioned first about the name, also used a lot of lovely lavender flower . He returned to the set of words so well known, to which we are so accustomed to and fond of, that there never wonder what they really mean.
What I notice is of course the similarity with the verb wash (and you were right here, Baby). In fact it is a derivative of the word "washing" meant as washing, which in turn is the result of a Latin gerundive, which meant more or less things to wash. "
The semantic shift is due to the fact that the lavender, with her perfume so intense, it is part of an ancient daily, which has probably always been used, hidden among the folds, to scent linen clean, or immersed in water to wash . The version a bit 'more authentic (and definitely less pollution) of modern deodorants and bubble bath.
