behaviourbehaviorn.

/bɪˈheɪvɪə/

Forms: Middle English–1500s behauour(e, 1500s–1600s behauiour(e, -ior, 1500s behauer, beheour(e, behauyour, 1600s behauor, behavier, ? 1500s– behaviour.

Etymology: < behave v., by form-analogy with haviour n., havyoure , common 15–16th cent. forms of the word which was originally aver n., aveyr , also in 15th cent. avoir ; really Old French aveir , avoir , in sense of ‘having, possession,’ but naturally affiliated in English to the native verb have , and spelt haver , havour , haviour , etc. Hence, by analogy, have : havour , -iour : behave : behavour , -iour . The formation might be confirmed by the (apparently) parallel demeanour , < demean (oneself). For the -iour see haviour n.

a. Manner of conducting oneself in the external relations of life; demeanour, deportment, bearing, manners.
