单词 siden
释义

sidenadv.

Forms: Old English sydan, early Middle English siden.
Origin: Either (i) a word inherited from Germanic. Or (ii) a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymon: side adv.1
Etymology: Either (i) < the Germanic base of side adj. + a Germanic adverbial suffix seen also in e.g. widen adv., outen adv., bove adv., or (ii) an alteration of side adv.1, after widen adv., arising from use in collocation with that word. Compare wide and side at side adv.1 1, wide and side at side adj. 2b.The early Middle English uses in the Caligula manuscript of Laȝamon’s Brut could alternatively be interpreted as forms of side adv.1 showing nunnation, a very common feature of the language of this manuscript which has not been satisfactorily explained.
Obsolete.
From or for a long distance; over a large area, widely. Only in widen and siden (also siden and widen): far and wide.
