stablishv.

Brit.

/ˈstablɪʃ/, U.S.

/ˈstæblɪʃ/

Forms: Middle English stablis, Middle English stablys, stablisce, Middle English stablisse, Middle English, 1500s stablische, Middle English–1500s stablisshe, Middle English stablice, stablesshe, stablych, stablysh, Middle English–1500s stablysche, stablysshe, 1500s stablyshe, stablishe, ( stablyszshe), 1700s–1800s 'stablish, Middle English– stablish; also past tense and past participle Middle English stablist, Middle English stablyste (Scottish stabelaste), Middle English, 1500s stabliste.

Etymology: Variant of establish v.

Now archaic.

= establish v. in various senses.From the 16th c there seems to have been a tendency to confine the use of the form stablish to those uses in which the relation of meaning to stable adj. is apparent, i.e. where the notion is rather ‘to strengthen or support (something existing)’ than ‘to found or set up’. The modern currency of the word is purely literary, and reminiscent of the Bible or Prayer Book.

1. transitive. To place or set (a material thing) firmly in position; to station (a person) in a place. Obsolete except in figurative context.
