Brit.

/ˈdɪŋθrɪft/, U.S.

Forms: early Middle English dyngethryftes (plural), 1500s–1600s dingthrift.

Origin: Apparently formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: ding v.¹, thrift n.¹

Etymology: Apparently < ding v.¹ + thrift n.¹ Compare later spendthrift n.The semantic motivation for sense 1 is uncertain, as the nature of the game is unclear. It has alternatively been suggested that, in this sense, the second element reflects a transmission error for a variant of thrust v. (see Forms 1.α. at that entry; compare later thrust n.).

†1. In plural. The name of: a game (precise form unclear). Obsolete.
