invalidadj.2n.

/ɪnvəˈliːd//ˈɪnvəliːd//ˈɪnvəlɪd/
Forms: Also invalide.
Etymology: formed as invalid adj.1, with modification of pronunciation after French invalide (1549 in R. Estienne), < Latin invalidus. The early pronouncing Dictionaries (e.g. Bailey 1727) give this as inˈvalid ; so that it appears to have been originally only a special sense of invalid adj.1, conformed in 18th cent. in stress (rarely in spelling) to French invalide. Invaˈlides (rime deeds) occurs in Prior (a1721), and Johnson 1755 has invaˈlide, as noun. Webster 1828 has ˈinvalid, and this pronunciation (given in most American dictionaries), is commonly heard in England also, especially in attributive use, as ‘an invalid sister’.
A. adj.2
Infirm from sickness or disease; enfeebled or disabled by illness or injury. Now only as attributive use of the noun.
