outlawryn.Origin: A borrowing from French, combined with English elements; modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: outlaw n., -ry suffix, French utlagarie, Latin utlagaria, French utlarie, Latin utlaria. Etymology: < outlaw n. + -ry suffix, after Anglo-Norman utlagarie, utlarie, etc., and post-classical Latin utlagaria (frequently from 1086 in British sources), utlaria (from c1115 in British sources), both ultimately < outlaw n. (also post-classical Latin utlaga in British sources) + Romance suffix -aria -ery suffix. The β. forms are probably independently < Anglo-Norman utlagarie, utlagary, utlagerie, etc., and post-classical Latin utlagaria; the γ. forms are probably independently < Anglo-Norman utlarie etc. and post-classical Latin utlaria. 1. society > authority > punishment > outlawry > [noun] society > authority > punishment > outlawry > [noun] > action of declaring an outlaw society > society and the community > social relations > lack of social communication or relations > exclusion from society > [noun] > rendering outcast > outcast > outlaw > condition of α. a1400 (N.Y.
