fabaceous

en-adj

fabaceous (comparative more fabaceous, superlative most fabaceous)

more fabaceous (comparative)
most fabaceous (superlative)

From Latin fabaceus, from faba (“bean”).

The fabaceous plants rank second only to the grasses in value as ministrants to the economy of animal life, for they produce food for man and beast in vast abundance, and generally speaking, the aliments derived from this family are of the highest character in point of nourishing power, all of them contributing largely to the nourishment, not only of the muscular and bony framework, but in a peculiar degree also to the nervous system, owing to their richness in nitrogen and salts of phosphorus. In a majority of cases the fabaceous or leguminous plants have pinnated leaves, that is to say, each separate leaf consists of a series of symmetrical divisions united by a common stem.

1870, Shirley Hibberd, Field Flowers a Handy-book for the Rambling Botanist ..., page 78:

Having the nature of a bean; like a bean.

loco

es-noun

loco m (plural locos, feminine loca, feminine plural locas)

locos (plural)
loca (feminine)
locas (feminine plural)

Uncertain.
Inherited from Old Spanish loco, perhaps from Andalusian Arabic لَوْقَاء (láwqa), from Arabic لَوْقَاء (lawqāʔ), feminine singular form of أَلْوَق (ʔalwaq, “stupid”), by reinterpreting the final Andalusian Arabic -a as the Ibero-Romance -a and back-forming the masculine with -o. Edward Roberts thinks the term is related to Arabic لَاق (lāq, “to soften”), but this verb is of root l-y-q, not l-w-q like أَلْوَق (ʔalwaq). Alternatively, derived from Ancient Greek γλαυκός (glaukós, “clear”). Compare Portuguese louco and Sicilian loccu.

→ Thai: ลูพิน (luu-pin)

LL-Q1860 (eng)-I learned some phrases-lupin.wav

From Middle English lupyne, lupine, from Old French lupin, from Latin lupīnus (“pertaining to the wolf”), because of the wolf-like “fang” within the blossom. It has also been linked to an assumed depletion of nutrients in the soil.

der

Lupins had been introduced into German agriculture in 1841 and had rapidly become a popular and useful feed for sheep as well as being used as a green manure plant for increasing soil fertility in poor-quality, sandy soils.

1991, R. F. Keeler, Handbook of Natural Toxins: Toxicology of Plant and Fungal Compounds, CRC Press, →ISBN, page 371:

Any member of the genus Lupinus in the family Fabaceae.

лубін

any member of the genus Lupinus in the family Fabaceae

Lupins contain less than 3% starch (Evans, 1994), the main fermentable carbohydrate involved in rumen acidosis when cereal grains are fed to ruminants. For this reason lupins have generally been regarded as a completely safe feed for sheep and cattle, and required no gradual introduction (Rowe, 1995).

1998, Tam Garland, A. Catherine Barr, Toxic Plants and Other Natural Toxicants, CABI, →ISBN, page 143:

Lupins, although a bean, are similar to olives aesthetically, and are equally good with breakfast. The trick is first to soak them overnight until rehydrated, then boil them for a few hours like any bean. They will not soften. Then soak them again, changing the water every day for several weeks until the bitterness is gone.

2010, Ken Albala, Rosanna Nafziger Henderson, The Lost Art of Real Cooking: Rediscovering the Pleasures of Traditional Food One Recipe at a Time, Penguin, →ISBN:

A lupin bean, a yellow legume seed of a Lupinus plant (usually Lupinus luteus), used as feed for sheep and cattle and commonly eaten in the Mediterranean area and in Latin America although toxic if prepared improperly.
