behavev.

Brit.

/bᵻˈheɪv/, U.S.

/bəˈheɪv/,

/biˈheɪv/

Forms: Past tense behaved (in 1500s behad.)

Etymology: Formed, apparently in 15th cent., < be- prefix 2 + have v., in order to express a qualified sense of have , particularly in the reflexive ‘to have or bear oneself (in a specified way),’ which answers exactly to modern German sich behaben . (Old English had behabban = Old High German bihabên , < be- prefix about + habban to hold, have v., in senses ‘encompass, contain, detain’; but there was no historical connection between that and the 15th cent. behave.)

1. reflexive. To bear, comport, or conduct oneself; to act:

a. with adverb or qualifying phrase, expressing the manner. (Formerly a dignified expression, applied e.g. to the bearing, deportment, and public conduct of persons of distinction; in 17–18th centuries commonly used of the way in which soldiers acquit themselves in battle; but now chiefly expressing observance of propriety in personal conduct, and usually as in 1b. The intransitive sense 3, preserves the earlier use.)
