释义

sidenhandadv.

Forms: Middle English sidenen, 1500s sidenham.
Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps formed within English, by compounding. Perhaps a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymons: English sīdan , side n.1, hand n.; aside-hand adv. at aside adv., prep., adj., and n. Compounds.
Etymology: Origin uncertain. Perhaps (i) < Old English sīdan, genitive singular of sīde side n.1 + hand n., after e.g. nigh hand adv., nearhand adv., etc., or perhaps (ii) aphetic < aside-hand adv. at aside adv., prep., adj., and n. Compounds. Compare later side hand adv., sidenhands adv. It is not entirely certain that both quotations show the same word.Despite the word division, the variant reading a sidenhand in quot. ?a1400 shows aside-hand adv. at aside adv., prep., adj., and n. Compounds.
Obsolete.
To the side; on one side of. Cf. side hand adv.
