Forms: see rush n.¹ and -y suffix¹.

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: rush n.¹, -y suffix¹.

Etymology: < rush n.¹ + -y suffix¹.Earlier currency (in sense 3) is perhaps shown by the following:OE Bounds (Sawyer 879) in P. H. Sawyer Charters of Burton Abbey (1979) 43 Swa forð andlangas þæs broces forð hit cymð to hryxies mæne weig.The word hryxies probably represents the genitive of either risc-īeg ‘rush-island’ or riscig-īeg ‘rushy island’. Compare also Old English risciht full of or covered with rushes ( < rush n.¹ + the parallel Old English suffix -iht : see discussion at -y suffix¹).
