cupboardn.

Brit.

/ˈkʌbəd/, U.S.

/ˈkəbərd/

Forms: Middle English–1500s cup-, cop-, (Middle English cuppe-, Middle English–1500s cope-, 1500s coup-), -bord(e, -bourd(e, -burd(e; 1500s–1600s cupboord, cupboarde, 1600s– cupboard. Also Middle English cowborde, 1500s couborde, cowbard, cobord, coberde, cobbourd, cobbarde, cuppord(e, cubboorde, 1500s–1600s cubbord(e, cubbard(e, 1600s cubberd, cubbert, 1600s–1700s cubboard, 1600s cupbard, cupbert.

Etymology: A combination of cup n. or cop n.¹ (or both) and board n. In Middle English cop- is frequent in northern sources, cuppe- and coup- rare, cup- most frequent, even at a time when the independent word was regularly spelt cuppe. By the 16th cent. the second element was phonetically obscured, and the p of cup- sunk in the following b, as in the existing pronunciation, which is indicated by a multitude of more or less phonetical spellings of the cubberd, cubbert type, often crossed by etymological reminiscences. Since the 18th cent. the analytical spelling has prevailed.

†1.

a. A ‘board’ or table to place cups and other vessels, etc. on; a piece of furniture for the display of plate; a sideboard, buffet. (See also court-cupboard n.) Obsolete.
