单词 rindle
释义

rindlen.

Brit. /ˈrɪnd(ə)l/, U.S. /ˈrɪnd(ə)l/, Scottish English /ˈrɪnd(ə)l/
Forms:

α. Old English renel (Kentish), Old English renul (Kentish), Old English rinnelle, Old English rynele, Old English rynyle, Old English–Middle English (in a late copy) rinel, Old English–Middle English (in a late copy) rynel, late Old English rinnellæ, early Middle English rynol, Middle English rennel, Middle English ryneil; Scottish pre-1700 rinel, pre-1700 rinol, pre-1700 rynell, 1800s– rinnal, 1900s– rinnel.

β. late Middle English rendel, late Middle English rendyl, late Middle English rendylle, 1500s ryndel, 1500s ryndle, 1500s– rindle, 1800s– rindel (English regional).

Origin: Probably a word inherited from Germanic.
Etymology: Probably a merging of two distinct but closely related Germanic base forms: (i) Old English rinnelle (weak feminine) stream, brook < an ablaut variant (e -grade) of the Germanic base of run v. (compare Middle Low German rinne channel, gutter, water pipe, Old High German rinna channel, gutter (Middle High German rinne watercourse, spring, channel, gutter, water pipe, German Rinne channel, gutter, groove), Gothic rinno torrent) + the Germanic base of -el suffix1; and (ii) Old English rynele (weak feminine) stream, brook, and rynel (strong masculine) stream, brook, also runner, messenger, both < an ablaut variant (zero-grade) of the Germanic base of run v. (compare rune n.1 and the Germanic forms cited at that entry) + the Germanic base of -el suffix1.In later Scots use in α. forms perhaps an alteration of runnel n.1 after rin, Scots variant of run v. With the intrusive d in the β. forms compare the similar development in the synonym rundle n.2
Now chiefly Scottish and English regional (northern and north midlands).
A small stream or watercourse; a brook; a runnel; (occasionally) a trickle of liquid. Also: a gutter, a drain.
