Webster's 1913 Dictionary |
|
| Definition: | | \Scis"sors\, n. pl. [OE. sisoures, OF. cisoires (cf. F.
ciseaux), probably fr. LL. cisorium a cutting instrument, fr.
L. caedere to cut. Cf. {Chisel}, {Concise}. The modern
spelling is due to a mistaken derivation from L. scissor one
who cleaves or divides, fr. scindere, scissum, to cut,
split.]
A cutting instrument resembling shears, but smaller,
consisting of two cutting blades with handles, movable on a
pin in the center, by which they are held together. Often
called a {pair of scissors}. [Formerly written also {cisors},
{cizars}, and {scissars}.]
{Scissors grinder} (Zo["o]l.), the European goatsucker.
[Prov. Eng.]
