Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymons: French chemois, chief mes.
Etymology: < Middle French (Normandy) chymois, chemois chief country house or dwelling, mansion house (1393), reduced variants of Middle French (Picardy and Normandy) chief mes, chief mais, etc. (1292 or earlier in Anglo-Norman; French regional (Normandy) †chef mois ; compare Anglo-Norman chef mees , chief mys ) < post-classical Latin caput mansus , caput mansi (9th cent.) < classical Latin caput head (see caput n.) + post-classical Latin mansus , mansi , genitive of mansus manse n. (declined as 4th or 2nd declension respectively).The post-classical Latin forms capmansus, capmasus, capmasius (from 11th cent., earliest in sources from southern France), apparently show borrowings < a Romance language. Compare Old Occitan capmas (c1120; Occitan capmas, cammas), Catalan capmas (1167). Compare the following earlier example, although it is unclear whether this shows an Older Scots form or an otherwise unattested Anglo-Norman form (earlier than the Norman Middle French reduced forms cited above):1364 in J. M. Thomson Registrum Magni Sigilli Scotorum (1912) I. 37/2 Nullus seriandus neque coronator debet officium suum facere infra dictam baroniam nisi primo veniat ad chymys domini dicte baronie.
