单词 justening
释义

justeningn.

Forms: late Middle English justenyng, late Middle English justenynge, late Middle English justnyng.
Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: jousten v., -ing suffix1.
Etymology: < jousten v. + -ing suffix1. Compare earlier jousting n.Compare the following quot., which it has been suggested may show an earlier instance of this word:a1300 (c1250) Floris & Blauncheflur (Vitell.) (1966) l. 199 þe Amirel haueþ to his iustninge [c1330 Auch. iustening; a1400 Egerton iustinges; c1300 Cambr. gestninge[s]] Oþer half hondert of riche kinge [c1300 Cambr. kinges].The meaning and etymology of the word in this quot. are uncertain and disputed. N.E.D. (1901) suggested a scribal error or alteration of jousting n. after gestening n. However, although the scribe of MS Cambridge substituted gestening n., jousting n. is first attested later, and the context does not securely suggest a sense ‘tournament’. Since the Old French version of Floris et Blancheflur, verses 1568–9, has Li amiraus en sa justice Cent et cinquante rois a mise ‘The emir has made 150 kings subject to him’, the edition by A. B. Taylor (1927) suggests a sense ‘administration, rule’ and a derivation < Old French juste just adj. + -en suffix5 + -ing suffix1, after Old French justice justice n.
Obsolete.
A jousting tournament.
