marmiten.¹

Brit.

/ˈmɑːmʌɪt/, U.S.

/ˈmɑrˌmaɪt/,

/ˈmɑrˌmit/

Forms:

α. 1800s marmit; English regional 1600s marment, 1600s marmett, 1700s marmitt, 1800s marmit, 1800s– marmint, 1800s– marmot; Scottish pre-1700 marmet.

β. 1800s– marmite.

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French marmite.

Etymology: < Middle French, French marmite cooking pot (14th cent.), of uncertain origin (compare post-classical Latin marmita (1318–19 in a British source) < French): the theory that it is < Old French marmite hypocrite, on the grounds that it conceals its contents, is not convincing. Sense 2 is recorded in French from 1847 (earlier 1637 ‘bombes ou grosses grenades..en forme de marmites de fer’), and became common in First World War (1914–18).The α. forms at sense 1 suggest a British regional pronunciation /ˈmɑrmᵻt/; the β. forms indicate a secondary borrowing, originally frequently with the semi-naturalized pronunciation /ˈmɑːmiːt/, which has since (partly, especially in Great Britain, influenced by Marmite n.² and adj.) given way to the fully naturalized variant. In sense 2 only the pronunciation /ˈmɑːmiːt/ was ever current.

1. Originally British regional and Military. A cooking pot of metal or (now usually) of earthenware; a stockpot.The α-forms typically represent a metal pot with hooks on the side, for hanging over a fire (largely peculiar to Shropshire and the West Midlands). Dict. Older Sc. Tongue (1973) at that entry defines the use in quot. 1581 at α. as ‘a pot or kettle’.
