Brit.

/ˈmʌɪnɔː/, U.S.

/ˈmaɪnɔr/, Welsh English

/ˈmainːɔː(r)/

Forms: 1900s– maenol Brit.

/ˈmʌɪnɒl/, U.S.

/ˈmaɪnɑl/,

/ˈmaɪnɔl/, 1900s– maenor.

Origin: A borrowing from Welsh. Etymon: Welsh maenor.

Etymology: < Welsh maenor, maenol administrative district, manor (9th cent. in Old Welsh as mainaur ), perhaps < maen stone (see menhir n.) + adjectival ending -awr (compare -ary suffix¹). Geiriadur Prifsygol Cymru (fascicle XXXVII, 1987) notes that maenor is the normal form in South Wales, and maenol normal in the North, and suggests that the later development of the sense ‘manor’ was influenced by English manor n. or the cognate Old French manoir.

Welsh History.

A Welsh territorial and administrative unit consisting of a number of townships, largely superseded by the smaller tref by the end of the 12th cent. Cf. tref n.
