单词 | crachoun |
释义 | † crachounn. Obsolete. A word of uncertain origin, frequent in Cursor Mundi, the later texts of which render it caitiff or wretch. [The only similar Old French word is crachon = French crachat ‘matter expectorated or spat out’, which gives a possible sense in the quots. There is a curious likeness in sense and form between crachoun and crathoun (crathon, craton), although so many instances of both occur that the hypothesis of an error of ch for th, or the converse, seems to be inadmissible.] ΘΠ the world > action or operation > adversity > [noun] > tribulation, trouble, or affliction > wretched person wretchc1000 caitiffc1325 crachouna1400 wretcheda1425 miserable1484 miser1542 afflicted1545 seggon1570 elf1573 devil1593 wreck1795 the mind > goodness and badness > inferiority or baseness > wretchedness > wretch > [noun] argha1275 mixa1300 caitiffc1325 crachouna1400 crathona1400 wretcheda1425 fouling?a1475 meschant1490 miscredent?a1500 ketterela1572 miscreant1590 scroyle1602 frummer1659 fustya1732 ramscallion1734 the mind > emotion > suffering > misery > [noun] > miserable person armOE ermingOE wretchc1000 caitiffc1325 crachouna1400 miserable1484 miser1542 elf1573 angishore1835 society > morality > moral evil > evil nature or character > lack of magnanimity or noble-mindedness > [noun] > baseness or moral vileness > person wretchOE filthOE birdc1300 villain1303 caitiffc1330 crachouna1400 crathona1400 custronc1400 sloven?a1475 smaik?1507 rook?a1513 scavenger1563 scald1575 peasant1581 scaba1592 bezonian1592 slave1592 patchcock1596 muckworm1649 blackguard1732 ramscallion1734 nasty1825 cad1838 boundera1889 three-letter man1929 a1400 (a1325) Cursor Mundi (Fairf. 14) l. 27063 He lise ouer-commen as a crachoun. a1400 (a1325) Cursor Mundi (Vesp.) l. 18120 Þu ert nu crachun [Trin.
