Encyclopedia Britannica



PORE

This article appears in Volume V22, Page 102 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: POL-PRE
PORE , a small opening or orifice, particularly used of the openings of the ducts of the sweat-glands in the skin or of the stomata in the epidermis of
plants
  or those through which the
pollen
  or seed are discharged from anthers or seed capsules. The word is an
adaptation
  through the
French
  from Lat.
porus
 , Gr. abpos, passage. In the sense of to look closely at, to read with persistent or
close
  attention, " pore " is of obscure origin. It would seem to be connected with " peer," to look closely into, and would point to an O. Eng. pyrian or pyrian. There is no similar word in Old
French
 .
