Brit. /ˈriːdzmən/, U.S. /ˈridzmən/

Forms: Old English rædesmann, Old English–early Middle English rædesmen (plural), early Middle English readesmon, early Middle English reaðesmon, early Middle English redesmen (plural), Middle English redesmon, 1800s– redesman.
Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; perhaps modelled on an early Scandinavian lexical item. Etymons: rede n.1, man n.1
Etymology: < the genitive of rede n.1 + man n.1, perhaps after early Scandinavian; compare Old Icelandic ráðsmaðr , Old Danish radsmand (Danish (now rare) rådsmand , †raadsmand ), Old Swedish rads man (Swedish (now archaic or historical) rådsman ), all in senses ‘counsellor, adviser’, in Swedish also ‘member of a council’. Compare also Old Frisian rēdesmann counsellor, adviser, advocate, Middle Dutch raetsman (Dutch raadsman ), German Ratsmann , both in sense ‘counsellor, adviser, member of a council’, Middle Low German rēdesman advocate. Compare also (with the first element uninflected) Middle Dutch raetman counsellor, adviser, member of a council, Middle Low German rēdeman advocate, Middle High German rātman counsellor, adviser, Old Icelandic ráðmaðr counsellor, adviser, Old Danish rathmen (plural noun) member of a council (Danish rådmand , †raadmand ), Swedish (now archaic or hist.) rådman member of a council; also early Middle English readmen , plural (in an apparently isolated attestation in a variant of quot. c1225). Compare rede-yeve n. and later reder n.
