Forms:

α. early Old English siofantigoða (in prefixed form), early Old English siofantiogoða (in prefixed form), Old English seofanteogoþa (in prefixed form), Old English seofantigeþa (in prefixed form), Old English seofonteogaþa (in prefixed form), Old English seofonteogoða (in prefixed form), Old English seofontigeþa (in prefixed form), Old English seofontigoþa (in prefixed form), Old English seofontigoða (in prefixed form), Old English siofontigoða (in prefixed form), Old English siofontiogaða (in prefixed form), early Middle English seofenteoða (in prefixed form), early Middle English seofenteþa (in prefixed form), early Middle English seofentuȝeþa (in prefixed form), Middle English seneteþe, Middle English seuenteþe, Middle English seuentithe, Middle English seuentiþe, Middle English seventeþe, 1500s seuenteth, 1500s seventyth, 1500s–1600s seuentieth, 1600s seauentieth, 1600s seaventieth, 1600s seventyeth, 1600s– seventieth; N.E.D. (1912) also records a form Middle English seveteþe.

β. northern Middle English seuentiand, Middle English seyuintiand.

Also represented by the abbreviations 70th, 70^th, lxxth, lxx^th, LXXth, LXX^th, and variants.

Origin: A word inherited from Germanic.

Etymology: < the Germanic base of seven adj. + a variant of the Germanic base of tenth adj. showing voicing of *h to *g (by Verner's Law; see further discussion of form types at tenth adj.). Compare Old Icelandic sjautugandi (later sjautugti, with remodelling after e.g. þrítugti thirtieth; see note for modern Icelandic form), Norwegian syttiande, Swedish sjuttionde.West Germanic parallels. Forms in the continental Germanic languages appear typically to show re-formation after the respective cardinal form, with different suffixation (superlative: see -est suffix), as West Frisian santichste , sauntichste , Middle Dutch seventichste (Dutch zeventigste ), Middle Low German seventichste , soventichste , Old High German sibunzugōsto , sibunzogōsto , sibinzegōsto (Middle High German sibenzigiste , German siebenzigste , (now usually) siebzigste ). Compare similarly Icelandic sjötugasti , probably after Middle Low German. Variant forms. The β. forms probably show early Scandinavian influence, perhaps facilitated by early forms of some lower ordinal numerals with -nd ; compare the γ-forms at tenth adj. and discussion at that entry. Compare also the β. forms at twentieth adj. and n. Some forms in English (including the modern standard form) apparently show re-formation after sixty adj. and -eth (see -th suffix²). In Old English only the prefixed form hundseofontigoþa , in the same sense, is attested (see hund n. 2 and compare quots. eOE, OE); prefixed forms are still occasionally attested in early Middle English. For examples in, respectively, senses A. a and A. b compare:eOE King Ælfred tr. Gregory Pastoral Care (Hatton) (1871) liii. 413 Be ðæm is awriten on ðæm nigon & hundsiofantigoðan sealme.OE Rule St. Benet (Corpus Cambr.) 37 Ðy syxtan dæge se fif and hundseofontigeþa [a1225 Winteney se fif and hundseofentuȝeþa].., þæt is ‘Notus in Judea deus’.Compare, with the same Germanic prefix, Middle Dutch tseventichste , tseventechste . In Old English (and Middle English) there is partial formal overlap with seventeenth adj. (compare e.g. seofonteogoða, seofenteoða at α. forms); compare discussion at sixtieth adj. With seneteþe at α. forms perhaps compare δ. forms at seven adj. and n.

The ordinal numeral corresponding to the cardinal numeral seventy. Also written 70th.

A. adj.

Next in order after the sixty-ninth; that is number seventy in a series.

a. With noun expressed.
