kelsonkeelsonn.

Brit.

/ˈkɛlsn/, U.S.

/ˈkɛls(ə)n/

Forms: α. 1600s kelsine, kilson, 1600s– kelson, (1800s kelston). β. 1600s keeleson, 1600s– keelson, (1700s keelstone, 1800s keelsale).

Etymology: = Dutch kolzwijn , kolsem , Low German kielswîn , German kielschwein , Danish kølsvin , Swedish kölsvin . The first element is apparently keel n.¹, but of the second the original form and meaning are obscure.In all the equivalents cited, except Dutch kolsem, the second element is identical with the word corresponding to English swine, and it appears that in 18th cent. Low German swîn was used by itself in the sense of ‘keelson’ (see Grimm). The English forms may therefore represent a Middle English *kelswīn: compare the reduction of boatswain to boteson, boson, bos'n. The reason for calling the timber by this name does not appear, but this is also the case with many similar applications of the names of animals, as cat, dog, hog, horse, etc. The original may have been an unrecorded Old Norse *kjǫlsvín or *kjalsvín, independently adopted in English and Low German. The corruptions keelstone, kelston, kelsom, keelsale, originate mainly in the lack of stress on the second element. English stemson and sternson are apparently recent formations on the analogy of keelson. It has been suggested that the original form may be preserved in Norwegian dialect kjølsvill = ‘keel-sill’, but this may also be an alteration, by popular etymology, of the usual kjølsvin. The most usual spelling from the first has been kelson: recently, however, there has been a tendency to spell keelson, though the pronunciation /ˈkɛlsən/ still prevails.

Nautical.

a. A line of timber placed inside a ship along the floor-timbers and parallel with the keel, to which it is bolted, so as to fasten the floor-timbers and the keel together; a similar bar or combination of iron plates in iron vessels.
