/eɪˈlanθ(ə)ri/, U.S.

/eɪˈlænθəri/

Forms: 1800s 2000s– ailantery, 1800s 2000s– ailanthery.

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation; perhaps modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: ailanthus n., -ery suffix.

Etymology: < ailanthus n. + -ery suffix, perhaps after French †ailanterie (although this is apparently first attested slightly later: 1867 or earlier; rare).

Now rare.
