释义

pikmoyaneadj.

Forms: 1500s pikmoyane, 1500s pykmoyance (plural).
Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps formed within English, by compounding. Or perhaps a borrowing from French, combined with an English element. Etymons: an element of uncertain origin, English moyane , moyen adj.; French moyen.
Etymology: Apparently < a first element of uncertain origin + moyane, variant of moyen adj. (compare sense 4 at that entry) or its etymon Middle French moyen middle-sized. It is possible that the compound culverin pikmoyane may represent a direct borrowing of an (apparently unattested) French compound (compare culverin-moyen at culverin n. b).
Scottish. Obsolete.
as postmodifier: designating a type of small culverin.
