    raddle词源英文解释

    Noun Middle English radel, probably variant of rodel ruddle >entry 1 Note: The Oxford English Dictionary, third edition, treats raddle as "apparently a variant of ruddle," with the difference in vowel lacking explanation. The Middle English Dictionary regards radel as a derivative of rad, taken as a variant of red, rede red >entry 1. There is also a variant reddle, presumably regional in Britain; note reddleman "peddler or merchant who sells red ocher for marking sheep," the profession of Diggory Venn, a character in Thomas Hardy's The Return of the Native. Verb (1) derivative of raddle >entry 1 Verb (2) probably derivative of regional raddle "supple stick interwoven with others as in making a fence," of uncertain origin Note: The noun is apparently not attested before 1577 and is thus later than the verb, used as a gerund radelyng in 1470. The Oxford English Dictionary, third edition, suggests that the noun might be the same as the very marginally attested word radyll "side rail of a cart" (presumably borrowed from Anglo-French ridele, redele, with unexplained vowel change).

    The first known use of raddle was in the 14th century
