Origin: A borrowing from Italian. Etymon: Italian duello.
Etymology: < Italian duello duel n.The β. forms probably reflect uncertainty about the quality of unstressed final vowels in Romance loanwords; compare discussion at -ado suffix.

Cosin Apol. for Sundrie Proc. (rev. ed.) ii. viii. 68 The Canon Lawe holdeth, that All fighting in Duello, that is to say, triall by battaile of one single man against another, is vnlawfull.
