weasandn.

/ˈwiːzənd/

Forms: α. Old English wásend, Middle English wosen, 1600s wozen. β. Middle English–1700s wesand, Middle English Scottish vassand, Middle English waysande, Middle English–1500s wesande, weysand(e, 1500s wessande, wezzand, 1600s wezand, weazond, 1600s–1800s weazand, 1800s weezand, 1500s– weasand; Middle English–1500s wesaunt, Middle English–1500s wesaunnt, wesawnt, wesant, 1500s wesante, weasaunte, 1500s–1600s weasant; 1500s weasan, 1500s–1600s weasen, 1600s wezon, wezen, weeson, weezon, 1600s–1700s weazon, 1600s–1800s weason; Middle English wesing, wesyng, 1600s weasin. γ. (Scottish and northern) 1700s–1800s wyson, wizen, 1700s wyzen, ( whizzen), 1800s wizzen, wizzon, wezzon. (See also Eng. Dial. Dict.)

Etymology: Old English wásend (masculine) (? and feminine) corresponding to Old Frisian wâsande , -ende , throat, Old Saxon wâsend ruminant stomach, Old High German weisant , -ont , -unt , throat, windpipe, gullet (Middle High German weisen , early modern German waisen , waise , modern dialect wäs etc.). The word has the form of a present participle or participial agent-noun (for the formation compare Old Norse vélindi neuter, gullet). The etymology has not been determined; for various conjectures see K. v. Bahder in Grimm s.v. Waisen. A parallel synonymous formation from the same root with different suffix appears in weezle n. (= German dialect waisel). The forms wosen (14th cent.), wozen (17th cent.), and the modern dialect oosen, hoosen, are normal descendants of the Old English wásend; and possibly the Scots form vassand comes < wásend with shortening of the vowel. The remaining Middle English and modern English forms (including weasand) are anomalous; etymologists have generally attempted to account for them by the assumption of an Old English parallel form *wǽsend. This is not impossible, but Sweet ( Ags. Dict.) appears to be in error in giving wǽsend as an actually recorded variant of wásend.

Now chiefly dialect.
