pomandern.

Brit.

/ˈpɒmandə/,

/ˈpəʊmandə/,

/pəˈmandə/, U.S.

/poʊˈmændər/

Forms:

α. late Middle English pomendambre.

β. late Middle English–1500s pomandre, 1500s pomaunder, 1500s pomawnder, 1500s pomemaunder, 1500s pommander, 1500s pommaundre, 1500s– pomander; also Scottish pre-1700 palmander, pre-1700 pommonder, pre-1700 powmandre.

γ. late Middle English–1600s pomeamber, 1500s pomamber.

Origin: Either (i) a borrowing from French. Or (ii) a borrowing from Latin. Etymons: French poume de aumbre, pomme d'ambre; Latin pomum de ambr', pomum de ambre.

Etymology: Either < Anglo-Norman poume de aumbre, pomme de ambre and Middle French pomme d'ambre (a1278 as pome d'ambre in Old French; < pome pome n.¹ + de de prep. + ambre amber n.²), or < post-classical Latin pomum de ambr', pomum de ambre (1213, 1265 respectively in British sources; < pōmum (see pomum n.) + de de prep. + ambre , amber : see amber n.² and adj.). Compare Old Occitan poma de l'ambre (a1368).The second syllable in the α form pomendambre perhaps reflects the ending of the Latin first element pomum , with assimilation of the final -m to the following -d- . The omission or loss of -d- (representing French de or Latin de ) in the β and γ forms is perhaps after the post-classical Latin variant pomum ambre (from 14th cent. in British sources), for which compare the following: a1500 in G. Henslow Med. Wks. 14th Cent. (1899) 122 Pomum ambre.The d in the final syllable in the β forms perhaps shows dissimilation of the consonant group -mb- to -nd after the preceding labials p and m (i.e. the sequence seen in the γ. forms, although these are attested slightly later). Both of the stress patterns found today are apparently already attested in the 16th cent. The following quots. apparently show stress on the second syllable: 1523 J. Skelton Goodly Garlande of Laurell 1027 Colyaunder, Swete pomaunder, Good cassaunder.?1544 J. Heywood Foure PP sig. B.i Gloues, pynnes, combes, glasses vnspottyd Pomanders, hookes, and lasses knotted. The following quots. apparently show stress on the first syllable (with secondary stress on the final syllable): 1595 M. Drayton Endimion & Phœbe sig. C The place wherein my bare feete touch the mold, Made vp in balls, for Pomander is sold.1633 G. Herbert Temple: Sacred Poems 170 Then should the Pomander, which was before A speaking sweet, mend by reflection.1648 R. Herrick Hesperides sig. B6 The Beads I kist, but most lov'd her That did perfume the Pomander.

a. A container for a pomander (sense 2a). Originally: a case in which a pomander was carried, usually a hollow ball of gold, silver, ivory, etc., often in the shape of an apple or orange. Later also: a small perforated (usually ceramic or metal) container filled with pot-pourri or some other aromatic substance and hung in a wardrobe, placed on a dressing table, etc.
