Origin: Formed within English, by conversion. Etymon: override v.

Etymology: < override v. Middle Eng. Dict. s.v. overrīde n. cites the following isolated example in sense ‘?superiority in riding’ (compare override v. 3); however, the word is perhaps better explained as an adjective in sense ‘excessively fierce, very fierce’ ( < over- prefix + ride adj.¹):a1500 (?a1400) Sir Torrent of Portyngale (1887) 40 Aventorres gan he take With heve tymbyr and ovyr-Ryde, Ther myght no man hys dent a-bydde.

1. Business. More fully override commission. = overriding commission n. at overriding adj. Compounds.The definition referred to in quot. 1934 reads: ‘Overwrite 4. To agree to pay or to pay to (a general agent, jobber, etc.) a commission (overwrite) on sales made by a subordinate agent, local salesman, etc.’ This use of overwrite as noun and verb does not appear in Webster's Third New Internat. Dict. (1961); it may have arisen by confusion, perhaps influenced by the co-occurrence of override with underwrite (cf. quot. 1930 for overriding commission n. at overriding adj. Compounds).
