† acrisyn.

Origin: Either (i) a borrowing from Latin. Or (ii) a borrowing from Greek. Etymons: Latin acrisia; Greek ἀκρισία.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin acrisia (1545 or earlier in sense 1) or its etymon ancient Greek ἀκρισία want of judgement, undecided character of a disease < ἄκριτος indistinguishable (see Acrita n.) + -ία -y suffix³. Compare French acrisie (1620). Compare also post-classical Latin acrisia lack of discernment, blindness (from 12th cent. in British and continental sources), although this may be (irregularly) < Hellenistic Greek ἀορασία blindness (compare the variant forms acroisia, aurisia, aorizia).The Latin form acrisia occurs as a lemma in a number of 18th- and 19th-cent. English dictionaries (e.g. Phillips 1706).

Obsolete. rare.

1. A state of disease such that the likelihood of the patient's recovery can neither be affirmed nor denied.

1721 N. Bailey Universal Etymol. Eng. Dict. Acrisy, that of which no Judgment is passed, or Choice made; a Matter in Dispute; want of Judiciousness, or Rashness in Judging.
