teenn.1Origin: 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. the world > action or operation > harm or detriment > [noun] the world > action or operation > harm or detriment > harm, injury, or wrong > [noun] the mind > goodness and badness > harmfulness > harm or injury > [noun] OE 51 Æt þæm ytmestan dæge eal hit him wyrþ to teonan þæm þe his Gode wyrneþ.

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. 1. the mind > emotion > anger > [verb (transitive)] > make angry the mind > emotion > anger > irritation > irritate [verb (transitive)] the mind > emotion > suffering > state of annoyance or vexation > be annoyed or vexed by [verb (transitive)] > annoy or vex OE 47 Ne ablinnan we, manna bearn, þæt we Gode cwemon, & deofol tynan, dæges & nihtes.
