tedv.1

Brit. /tɛd/, U.S. /tɛd/
Forms: Middle English–1500s tedd, Middle English–1600s tedde, 1500s teede, 1600s tede, 1500s– ted.
Etymology: Known from 15th cent.; apparently representing an Old English *tęddan , cognate with Icelandic tęðja , past tense tadda , in special sense, to dung, manure, probably to spread (manure) or spread (the ground) with manure: see tathe v. The more general sense appears in Old High German, Middle High German, and modern High German dialect zętten to spread out, scatter < *zatjan < Old Germanic *tadjan. The non-appearance of this verb in Old English and Middle English, and in Low German and Dutch, is notable.
1. transitive. To spread out, scatter, or strew abroad (new-mown grass) for drying. Also absol.Sometimes including the turning of the grass when dried on one side: see quot. 1669; but tedding and turning are properly distinct processes: cf. quots. 1577, 1616, 1616.
ΘΚΠ
