Arabyn.adj.

Brit.

/ˈarəbi/, U.S.

/ˈɛrəbi/

Forms: early Middle English Arabisz (plural), Middle English Arraby, Middle English–1500s Arabye, Middle English–1600s Arabie, Middle English– Araby, 1500s Arrabie; also Scottish pre-1700 Araby, pre-1700 Arraby.

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French arabie.

Etymology: < Anglo-Norman arabie, Anglo-Norman and Old French, Middle French arabi, Middle French arrabi, araby (noun) person of Arab descent (c1100 in Old French as arrabit ), Arab horse (second half of the 12th cent.), (adjective) Arab, Arabian (c1170, originally designating an Arab horse), Arabic (c1300 or earlier) < Arabic ʿarabī (adjective) Arab, Arabian, Arabic < ʿarab Arab n.¹ + -ī -i suffix².Early attestation in surnames. Apparently attested earlier in surnames, as Robert Arrabi (1198), Ralph Araby (1221–2), although it is unclear whether these should be interpreted as reflecting the Anglo-Norman or the Middle English word. Early examples as a place name in English. Araby ( < Anglo-Norman and Old French, Middle French Arabie (early 12th cent.; < classical Latin Arabia Arabia n.; French Arabie ); compare earlier Arabia : see Arabia n.) occurs as a place name in English from the 14th cent. onwards. Compare the following examples, some of which illustrate the association of the region with perfumes or spices:c1325 (c1300) Chron. Robert of Gloucester (Calig.) 8194 He an kniȝtes heued of arabie of smot.1667 J. Milton Paradise Lost iv. 162 As when..North-East windes blow Sabean Odours from the spicie shoare Of Arabie the blest.1792 D. Lloyd Voy. Life iv. 77 Spicy gales from fragrant Araby.1818 J. Keats Endymion i. 28 I, who,..would race With my own steed from Araby.1914 Crisis July 143/2 Surely, no parterre of the East, perfumed with all the odors of Araby, and peopled with houris, was ever so fair as my garden! Origin of French forms with final consonant. The French noun is first attested in forms with final -t or -th (Anglo-Norman arabith , Anglo-Norman and Old French arabit , Old French arrabit , from c1100), of uncertain origin, perhaps resulting from remodelling of the ending after French -ite -ite suffix¹; compare post-classical Latin arabita Arab person (11th cent.).
