† carabinn.

Forms: Also 1500s–1600s carbine, 1500s carbyne, 1600s carbeene, carabine, carrabin. See also carbine n., the weapon: the two words have been taken as one in English.

Etymology: < French carabin (16th cent. in Littré), of disputed origin: Roquefort alleges an earlier calabrin, according to Diez, < calabre an ancient engine of war, the name calabrin being transferred from the man who worked that to those who carried these fire-arms; but Littré inclines to see in it a translation of Calabrīnus Calabrian. Calabre, also Provençal and Old Spanish, is regarded by Diez as representing medieval Latin chadabula an engine for throwing stones, earlier catabola, < Greek καταβολή overthrow, destruction. N.E.D. (1888) gives the pronunciation as (kæ·răbin) /ˈkærəbɪn/.

Obsolete.

a. A mounted musketeer; a carabineer. (See 1611.)Not in Johnson 1755.
