† pillern.

Forms:

α. Middle English piloure, Middle English pilouur, Middle English pylowre, Middle English–1500s pylour, Middle English–1600s pilour; Scottish pre-1700 pilour, pre-1700 pylour.

β. late Middle English pyllour, late Middle English–1500s pillour; Scottish pre-1700 pellour, 1800s pillour.

γ. late Middle English pillarer (probably transmission error), late Middle English pyllare, late Middle English–1500s pyllar, late Middle English–1800s piller, 1500s pyller, 1600s–1700s pillar.

Origin: Of multiple origins. Apparently partly a borrowing from French. Apparently partly formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: French pilour ; pill v.¹, -or suffix, -er suffix¹.

Etymology: Apparently partly < Anglo-Norman pilour (compare Middle French pilleur (1345); < piller (see pilyie v.) + -our -our suffix), and partly < pill v.¹ + either -or suffix or -er suffix¹; the word thus apparently shows a merger of two etymologically distinct words (compare also discussion at pill v.¹). Compare peeler n.¹ N.E.D. (1906) gives the pronunciation as (pi·ləɹ) /ˈpɪlə(r)/.

Obsolete.

a. A plunderer; a robber, a thief; = peeler n.¹ 1a. Also in early use: an extortioner.
