foliotn.

Brit.

/ˈfɒlɪət/, U.S.

/ˈfoʊliət/

Etymology: ? < Old French foliot. The Old French word is recorded only as meaning watch-spring; but according to Hatzfeld & Darmesteter it is derived from the verb folier to play the fool, to dance about, and so may have had other meanings related to this verb. Compare the surname Foliot, known from 12th cent. in English. How Burton obtained the word there is nothing to show; he evidently connects it with Italian folletto, = French (esprit) follet, hobgoblin, properly a diminutive of fol foolish. Can it be a misprint for follet?

†1. ? Foolish matter. Obsolete. rare.

1899 F. J. Britten Old Clocks & Watches 23 Froissart has left a descriptive eulogium of a clock, written in 1370... In this the controlling medium is referred to as a ‘foliot’, which was doubtless the straight armed balance with weights.

1948 A. L. Kroeber Anthropol. (rev. ed.) xi. 453 The first clock escapements, large and heavy, were of the type called ‘foliot balance and verge escape’.

1958 New Scientist 11 Dec. 1481/1 (caption) The Dover Castle clock, showing the verge-and-foliot escapement.

1962 E. Bruton Dict. Clocks & Watches 152 Many years ago it had been converted to pendulum. In 1956 it was restored to foliot..and set going again inside the cathedral.
