单词 heavel
释义

heaveln.

Brit. /ˈhiːvl/, U.S. /ˈhiv(ə)l/
Forms:

α. early Old English hebeld, early Old English hebild, Old English–early Middle English hefeld, Old English (rare)–early Middle English heueld, early Middle English evedles (plural, transmission error), early Middle English eveld, early Middle English hefdles (plural, transmission error), early Middle English heveld.

β. early Old English hebel- (in compounds), Old English–early Middle English hefel- (in compounds), early Middle English helvel- (in compounds, transmission error), early Middle English heuel- (in compounds), early Middle English hevel- (in compounds), early Middle English hevele, 1600s hevell, 1600s 1800s– heavel, 1700s– havel (English regional (East Anglian)), 1800s– evel (English regional (Somerset)), 1800s– hevel (English regional (western)).

Origin: A word inherited from Germanic.
Etymology: Cognate with Middle Dutch hevelt (early modern Dutch hevelt ; compare Dutch hevel ), Old Saxon hevild (Middle Low German hēvelte ), Icelandic hafald (17th cent.) < the Germanic base of Old English hebban to lift (see heave v.) + a Germanic suffix forming nouns of action or instrument (also seen in e.g. Old English færeld journey, way, vehicle (compare fare v.1), threshold n., etc.). Compare heald n. and heddle n.In Old English and early Middle English the word chiefly occurs in glosses rendering classical Latin līcium length of yarn, thread, cord, (in weaving) leash, heddle (see lisse n.2 and also lease n.4) and also post-classical Latin liciatorium (Vulgate), usually assumed to denote the web-beam, but perhaps also used in sense ‘heddle-beam’. It is probable that the English word always refers to heddles (including the heddle-beam), but the context of the attestations makes it impossible to be certain. Compare also the Old English derivative verb hefeldian to begin to weave, apparently with reference to setting up the warp on the loom.
Weaving. In later use English regional (now historical).
A device on a loom which lifts and separates the warp to allow passage of the shuttle. Also: each of the looped cords or (later) wires forming part of this device; = heddle n.In Old English also apparently occasionally used more generally to denote a (type of) thread or cord, perhaps of the kind used for heddles (compare discussion in etymology section).
