† dedeignv.²

Forms: Middle English–1500s dedeynȝe, dedeinȝe, Middle English dedyne, 1500s dedeyne, dedenȝe, deden(e, dedane, deding.

Etymology: A derivative of deign v., in which the prefix de- appears to be taken in the sense ‘down’ (de- prefix 1a), so as to strengthen the notion of condescension; or which may have arisen by confusion of dedeign (= disdain) with deign. It seems to be confined to Scotch, and to have no analogies in French or Latin.

Scottish. Obsolete.

1. = deign v. 1 (In first quot. impersonal)
