Definition
Relating to, resembling, or containing gamboge; having properties of the yellow resin.
Etymology
From 'gamboge' + '-ic' (suffix meaning of, relating to, or containing). This is the more standard scientific adjective form compared to 'gambogian,' following typical chemical and botanical naming conventions.
Kelly Says
Scientists prefer '-ic' endings for properties (like 'carbonic' for relating to carbon), so 'gambogic' sounds more technical than 'gambogian'—it's what you'd find in a 19th-century chemistry textbook describing the resin's properties.
