penstockn.¹

Brit.

/ˈpɛnstɒk/, U.S.

/ˈpɛnˌstɑk/

Forms:

α. 1500s (1800s U.S.) pentstock.

β. 1500s pinstocke, 1500s pynstoke, 1500s–1600s penstocke, 1700s– penstock.

Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: pent n.¹, stock n.¹; pen n.², stock n.¹

Etymology: Origin uncertain; perhaps < pent n.¹ + stock n.¹ (compare α. forms), or perhaps < pen n.² + stock n.¹ (compare β. forms), but both pent n.¹ and pen n.² are first attested later. It is also unclear whether the forms pinstocke , pynstoke show raising of e to i or show pin v.² as their first element.

1. A sluice or floodgate for regulating the flow from a pent body of water, as in a watermill.
