Etymology: < Anglo-Norman rebaudie, Anglo-Norman and Old French, Middle French ribaudie, Middle French ribauldie (12th cent.) < ribaut ribald n. + -ie -y suffix3; influenced in form by ribald n. and ribald adj. In later use apparently re-formed < either ribald n. or ribald adj. + -y suffix3, or perhaps simply reflecting a misrecollection or remodelling of ribaldry n.Compare Middle Dutch ribaudie, Middle High German ribaldīe.
Now rare.
1. = ribaldry n. (in various senses).Apparently unattested between the 16th and 19th centuries.
