单词 affreyd
释义

affreydn.

Forms: 1500s affrayed, 1500s (1800s historical) affreyd, 1600s affreyde.
Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps a borrowing from Italian. Etymon: Italian affreddare.
Etymology: Origin uncertain. Perhaps < Italian affreddare to cool (beginning of the 14th cent.; < a- a- prefix5 + freddo cold: see semifreddo n.). Perhaps compare Anglo-Norman afroider, Middle French affroidir to cool (1354 in an apparently isolated attestation in Anglo-Norman, subsequently in 16th cent.). No morphologically parallel noun appears to be attested in either Italian or French.Although quot. 1886 suggests a connection with Italian fretta haste (see affret n.), this seems unlikely on formal grounds, as does any connection with Italian verb affrettare ‘to speed (something) up, to incite (a person)’ (see affret n.).
Obsolete.
A disorder of horses attributed to hard riding and overheating followed by sudden chilling, and characterized esp. by stiffness of the legs.

?1523 J. Fitzherbert Bk. Husbandry f. xxxiiiiv Affrayed is an yll dysease: and cometh of great labour and ryding fast with a contynuall swete, and than sodaynly to take a great colde, his legges woll be styffe and his skynne woll sticke fast to his sydes and may be well cured.
1669 J. Blagrave Epitome Art of Husbandry 150 A Remedy approved for the Hide-bound, by some improperly called the Affreyde.
1886 T. L. Kington-Oliphant New Eng. I. iii. 406 It is curious to see how entirely Romance the old terms of English sport were; horses have a syre and damme, not a father or mother..; there is a disease called the affreyd, when a horse has been overridden, reminding us of the Italian fretta (haste).
