| a scrap or morsel of food left at a meal. |
Etymonline
Word Origin & History
stannic
"containing tin," 1790, from Mod.L. stannum, from L.L. stannum "tin" (originally an alloy of silver and lead), a scribal alteration of L. stagnum, probably from a Celt. source (cf. Ir. stan "tin," Cornish, Bret. sten, Welsh ystaen). The L. word is the source of It. stagno, Fr. étain, Sp. estaño
"tin."
