herbe aux teigneux ringworm herb Explanation: In this instance, apparently yes! http://thegoodwitch.ca/burdock/ "Burdock herb has many other names including Common Burdock, Great Burdock, Greater Burdock, Burr, Gobo, Beggar’s Buttons, Stick Button, Turkey Burrseed, Hareburr, Bardane, Cockle-Bur, Clotbur, Batweed, Love Leaves, Philanthropos (friend of man), and Ringworm Herb." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 mins (2013-09-03 14:18:51 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Took me all of 2 minutes to research this on the Internet. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2013-09-03 15:36:08 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Looking for meanings of 'teigneux' in FR monolingual resources, I learnt that in addition to the common, colloquial meaning (with which I was already familiar), it also has a medical meaning of 'someone with ringworm'. Searching for "burdock" + "ringworm", the reference I have posted appeared on the first page of results. |
