clamourclamorv.²

Forms: Also clamber.

Etymology: Evidently related to clam v.², of which it may be a frequentative derivative (compare stutter , patter ), and so better spelt clammer . The actual spelling shows association with clamour v.¹, and actual relation to that is, of course, also possible. Identity with German klammern, or with clamber, seems hardly admissible, though association with the latter is found by a correspondent skilled in campanology, who says: Clambering describes the way in which the sounds of the bells clamber as it were one on the top of another when they get into confusion; in Yorkshire it is called jumbling.Previous versions of the OED give the stress as: ˈclamour.

1. Bell-ringing. See quot. and cf. clam v.²Todd says ‘A term in ringing, according to Warburton, which other commentators..imagine to be merely his own opinion. It is, however, probable. To encrease the strokes of the clapper on the bell, in falling it.’

ΘΚΠ

society > leisure > the arts > music > performing music > playing instruments > bell-ringing > [verb (transitive)] > conclude peal

clamour1747

1747 W. Warburton Wks. Shakespear III. 345 (note) When bells are at the height, in order to cease them, the repetition of the strokes becomes much quicker than before; this is called clamouring them.

c1800 W. Jones et al. Key to Art of Ringing 4 A true compass makes the ringing pleasant and harmonious..the want of it produces those clamberings and firings (as it is called) that destroy all music, and is very disgusting to every judicious ear.

2. To stop from noise, to silence; = clam v.² 2. [Supposed by Warburton to be taken from the fact that the clamouring of bells is immediately followed by silence.]

This entry has not yet been fully updated (first published 1889; most recently modified version published online March 2022). clamourclamorv.² Forms: Also clamber. Etymology: Evidently related to clam v.², of which it may be a frequentative derivative (compare stutter , patter ), and so better spelt clammer . The actual spelling shows association with clamour v.¹, and actual relation to that is, of course, also possible. Identity with German klammern, or with clamber, seems hardly admissible, though association with the latter is found by a correspondent skilled in campanology, who says: Clambering describes the way in which the sounds of the bells clamber as it were one on the top of another when they get into confusion; in Yorkshire it is called jumbling.Previous versions of the OED give the stress as: ˈclamour. 1. Bell-ringing. See quot. and cf. clam v.²Todd says ‘A term in ringing, according to Warburton, which other commentators..imagine to be merely his own opinion. It is, however, probable. To encrease the strokes of the clapper on the bell, in falling it.’ ΘΚΠ society > leisure > the arts > music > performing music > playing instruments > bell-ringing > [verb (transitive)] > conclude peal clamour1747 1747 W. Warburton Wks. Shakespear III. 345 (note) When bells are at the height, in order to cease them, the repetition of the strokes becomes much quicker than before; this is called clamouring them. c1800 W. Jones et al. Key to Art of Ringing 4 A true compass makes the ringing pleasant and harmonious..the want of it produces those clamberings and firings (as it is called) that destroy all music, and is very disgusting to every judicious ear. 2. To stop from noise, to silence; = clam v.² 2. [Supposed by Warburton to be taken from the fact that the clamouring of bells is immediately followed by silence.] ΘΠ the world > physical sensation > hearing and noise > inaudibility > make inaudible [verb (transitive)] > silence > stop a sound still1390 extinguish1540 clamoura1616 unshouta1616 silence1617 slumber1622 clam1674 mash1930 a1616 W.
