释义

teenn.1

Brit. /tiːn/, U.S. /tin/
Forms:

α. Old English tean- (Northumbrian, in compounds), Old English teane (Mercian, accusative), Old English–early Middle English teona, Old English (rare)–Middle English (in derivatives) teon, Old English (rare)–Middle English teone, early Middle English tenne, early Middle English tyene (south-eastern), Middle English tean, Middle English ten, Middle English teune, Middle English teyn, Middle English teyne, Middle English–1500s tene, Middle English–1700s teene, 1500s– teen, 1600s (1800s historical) teine; Scottish pre-1700 teine, pre-1700 ten, pre-1700 teyn, pre-1700 teyne, pre-1700 1700s–1800s tein, pre-1700 1700s– teen, pre-1700 1800s tene, 1700s teene, 1800s tean, 1800s teynd, 1800s tynd.

β. Old English tion- (in compounds), Old English tiona, Old English tynan (inflected form), early Middle English tine, Middle English tin, Middle English tion, Middle English tyne, Middle English tynn (perhaps transmission error); N.E.D (1911) also records a form late Middle English tyune.

γ. south-west midlands early Middle English tone, early Middle English toune, early Middle English tuone, Middle English toene, Middle English tuen, Middle English tuene.

Origin: A word inherited from Germanic.
Etymology: Cognate with Old Saxon tiono crime, injustice, injury, and (with different stem class) Old Icelandic tjón damage, loss; further etymology uncertain and disputed. Compare the Old Frisian derivatives tiōnene , tiōninge , both in sense ‘damage, injury’. Compare teen v.1In Old English (as in Old Saxon) chiefly a weak masculine (tēona ). With the early Middle English form tyene at α. forms compare γ. forms at teen v.1 The β. forms are of more than one origin. Old English forms in io are inverted spellings reflecting merger of ēo and īo . Some (northern) Middle English forms may show the influence of tine v.2, whereas some of the early forms could reflect a by-form with i-mutation; compare α. forms at teen v.1 The γ. forms represent the regular west midland and south-western development of Old English ēo into a mid front rounded vowel.
Now Scottish (chiefly archaic and rare).
1.

δ. south-west midlands Middle English toene, Middle English tuemede (past tense, transmission error), Middle English tuene, Middle English tune.

Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a word inherited from Germanic. Partly formed within English, by conversion. Etymon: teen n.1
Etymology: Apparently a merging of two distinct but closely related verbs: (i) Old English tīenan (late West Saxon tȳnan ; a weak verb of Class I: see α. forms), cognate with Old Saxon -tiunean (in gitiunean to do harm), Old Icelandic týna to destroy (compare tine v.2) < the Germanic base of teen n.1; (ii) Old English tēonian (a corresponding weak Class II verb: see β. forms) < teen n.1Compare Old Frisian tiūna , tiōna to lay claim (to), bitiūna to impair, although these are of uncertain origin and may reflect unrelated formations. Variant forms. Old English (late West Saxon) tȳnan (see α. forms) shows i-mutation of the inherited diphthong īo (reflecting Germanic iu < earlier eu ), subject to mutation only in West Saxon (in Mercian unmutated īo merged with ēo ). All of the Middle English forms can be explained as continuing Old English tēonian , although the reflexes of the two verbs would merge in any case in most Middle English varieties. The γ. forms show the typical south-eastern development of a palatal glide before the stem vowel. The δ. forms show the regular west midland and south-western front rounded reflex of Old English ēo (or ȳ ). The past-participle form tenyn was probably formed by analogy with the past participles of many strong verbs (compare -en suffix6). With the past participle forms teended and teendit compare Scots (Perthshire) teended (adjective) downcast, saddened, affected by sorrow (1972 or earlier, rare; compare sense 3).
Obsolete.
