poindv.

Brit. /pɪnd/, /pɔɪnd/, U.S. /pɪnd/, /pɔɪnd/, Scottish English /pɪnd/
Forms:

α. pre-1700 powynd, pre-1700 puuynd, pre-1700 puynd, pre-1700 pvynd, pre-1700 pwind, pre-1700 pwynd, pre-1700 1700s puind; Sc. National Dict. at Poind v. also records a form puin.

β. pre-1700 poyind, pre-1700 poyn, pre-1700 poynde, pre-1700 poyne, pre-1700 1700s (1800s Orkney) poynd, pre-1700 1700s– poind, 1800s poin'd (past tense).

γ. north-eastern 1600s peynd, 1800s peen, 1800s pein.

Origin: A variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymon: pind v.
Etymology: Variant of pind v. The α and β forms show reverse spellings (compare e.g. woynd , Older Scots variant of wind n.1) reflecting the 15th-cent. Older Scots merger in nasal and labial environments of short ŭ with short ĭ . Included among the words with ŭ there were several with ŭ by earlier shortening of original long ō which already had doublets with the spellings ui or (chiefly in minim environments) oi (the usual graphs for the reflex of original long ō ), hence giving rise to the reverse spellings (see further A. J. Aitken and C. Macafee Older Sc. Vowels (2002) §16.1). The pronunciation /pɔɪnd/ arose as a spelling pronunciation. Compare earlier pound v.2 and discussion at that entry. The γ. forms are difficult to explain, but may represent a hyperdialectism arising from an awareness among north-eastern speakers of the correspondence between north-eastern /i/ and /ɪ/ in other dialects (as the respective reflexes of original long ō), perhaps aided by the spelling and by the frequency of existing doublets in /ɪ/ ~ /i/ from other sources (compare A. J. Aitken & C. Macafee Older Sc. Vowels (2002) §4.2.1).Forms without final -d are perhaps inferred from forms of the past tense and past participle which show assimilation (compare pind v.).
