Forms:

α. late Middle English– refectory, 1500s–1600s refectorie.

β. 1500s refertorie, 1600s–1700s refertory, 1700s reffetory.

Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from French. Partly a borrowing from Latin. Etymons: French refectorie; Latin refectorium.

Etymology: < Anglo-Norman refectorie (variant of refectoire : see below) and its etymon post-classical Latin refectorium (6th cent.) < classical Latin refect- , past participial stem of reficere refect v. + -ōrium -ory suffix¹. Compare Anglo-Norman refectoire , refector , refectour , etc., and Middle French refectoire , reffectoer , refecteur , etc. (12th cent. in Old French; French réfectoire ), Old Occitan refeitor (12th cent.), refector (13th cent.), Catalan refetor (13th cent.; later also refectori ), Spanish refectorio (13th cent.), refetorio (15th cent.), Portuguese refeitório (13th cent.), refectório (1661), Italian refettorio (a1306). Compare also refrectore n. and foreign-language forms cited at that entry.In early use sometimes stressed on the first syllable; this stress pattern is perhaps also attested by the β. forms. Compare:1791 J. Walker Crit. Pronouncing Dict. (at cited word) Almost all the dictionaries I have consulted, except Mr. Sheridan's, place the accent on the second syllable of this word; and yet so prevalent has the latter accentuation been of late years, that Mr. Nares is reduced to hope that it is not fixed beyond recovery. There is, indeed, one reason why this word should not have the accent on the first syllable, and that is, the two mutes in the second and third, which are not so easily pronounced when the accent is removed from them, as the mutes and liquids in accessory, consistory, desultory, &c. N. E. D. (1905) notes that a pronunciation with stress on the first syllable ‘is still used by some Roman Catholics’. Compare:1885 Notes & Queries 16 May 396/1 I often hear Catholics say reffetory for refectory (with a stress on the first syllable), though I do not know where they get the tradition. In Italy the folk-word for a monastery is frateria.1970 A. S. C. Ross How to pronounce It 148 Refectory, [rə-fe̱k-tri], accent on second syllable, to students; but [re̱f-ik-tri], accent on first, to many monks.

1. A room used for communal meals or refreshment, esp. in an educational or religious institution. Also in extended use.
