Sentences with QUINAQUINA (2)
The tree, however, has always been known to the Indians by the Quichua name of “quinaquina,” and in time the refined product took on its modern name of quinine.
The doubling of words gives a collective and often quite different meaning; thus _rumi_ is stone, _rumirumi_, a stony place; _runa_ is man, _runaruna_, a crowd; _quina_ is bark, _quinaquina_, the medicinal bark from which we get quinine, as well as the name thereof.
