† ˈcannellate, -elate, a. Arch. Obs. [After It. cannellato ‘wrought hollow or chamfered as a reed’ (Florio), and F. cannelé, pa. pple. of canneler to channel or flute, as canneler une colonne; cf. canneau fluting, and med.L. canellus channel. (The number of n's and l's is thus quite unfixed.) The Fr. and It. words are taken as immediately connected with cannella, cannelle, dim. of canna, canne reed, cane, but F. canneau can hardly be separated from OF. canel, one of the forms of canal: see canal, channel.] Channelled, fluted.
