Nguồn gốc từ

ine-pro The noun is derived from Late Middle English tincture, borrowed from Latin tīnctūra (act of dyeing) + Middle English -ure. Tīnctūra is derived from tīnctus (coloured, tinged; dipped in; impregnated with; treated) + -tūra; while tīnctus is the perfect passive participle of tingō, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *teng- (to dip; to soak). tainture teinture tinctura.
