Definition
Any plant with prominent green foliage or a plant used medicinally or as a dye; a general herbalistic term.
Etymology
Compound of 'green' and 'wort' (Old English 'wyrt,' meaning plant or herb). This suffix '-wort' appears in hundreds of plant names like mugwort, figwort, and liverwort.
Kelly Says
The '-wort' suffix is so old it survives in English plant names even though we don't use 'wort' to mean 'plant' anymore—except in 'wort' for plant matter in beer brewing, showing how ancient this terminology really is!
