Definition of eggshell
eggshellnoun
vỏ trứng
/ˈeɡʃel//ˈeɡʃel/The word "eggshell" is a straightforward combination of the words "egg" and "shell". "Egg" comes from Old English "æg," which has been used to describe the oval-shaped reproductive cells of birds since at least the 7th century. "Shell" derives from Old English "scell," meaning a hard outer covering. The combination of these words, "eggshell," likely arose naturally as a descriptive term for the hard protective layer surrounding an egg.
