† nipev.²

Forms: late Middle English–1500s nype, 1500s–1600s nipe.

Origin: Probably a borrowing from Dutch. Etymon: Dutch nīpen.

Etymology: Probably < Middle Dutch nīpen to pinch, squeeze (Dutch nijpen ), cognate with West Frisian nipe , Middle Low German nīpen , both in the same sense; further etymology uncertain: perhaps < the same Indo-European base as ancient Greek κνίΨ a kind of ant (see ciniphes n.). Compare slightly earlier nip v.¹In Middle English and early modern English the word is often difficult to distinguish from nip v.¹ (compare the rhyme in quot. a1578 at main sense).
