† pellv.

Forms: Middle English pelle, Middle English pylle, 1600s–1800s pell.

Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps a borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin pellere.

Etymology: Origin uncertain; perhaps < classical Latin pellere to drive (see pulse v.). Compare peal v.² It is possible that senses 1 and 2 may not show the same word. The form pylle in quot. ?a1475 at sense 2 is difficult to explain.Earlier currency of the verb (in sense 1) is perhaps implied by the surname Pelehaste (1209: see etymological note at peal v.²).

Obsolete (Scottish in later use).
