/em(p)t/

Forms: Old English æmta (imperative singular), Old English æmtat (3rd singular present indicative), Old English æmtod (past participle), early Middle English æmteden (plural past indicative), early Middle English geæmted (past participle), Middle English empte, Middle English emte, Middle English y-emptyde (past participle), 1500s– empt, 1900s– emp (Newfoundland), 1900s– hemp (Newfoundland); English regional (midlands and southern) 1800s– emp, 1800s– ent.

Origin: Apparently formed within English, by clipping or shortening. Etymon: empty v.

Etymology: Apparently shortened < empty v. (see note below). Compare Old English ǣmta leisure, freedom, opportunity (see empty adj. and n.).Old English ǣmtigian empty v., a weak Class II derivative of ǣmtig empty adj., frequently shows phonological simplification of the sequence -igi- /-iji-/ to -i- in inflectional forms beginning with i (e.g. infinitive ǣmtigian > ǣmtian ). In these shortened forms it has the appearance of a weak Class II derivative of a base ǣmt- , and was apparently reanalysed as such (perhaps under the influence of the Old English noun ǣmta, the etymon of empty adj.), subsequently developing forms that show no trace of the original adjectival suffix, e.g. ǣmta (imperative singular). The semantic range of the verb empt v. supports such a derivation from empty v. (rather than directly from the noun ǣmta ). Only unambiguous Old English forms have been admitted as evidence at this entry, although the same reanalysis may perhaps underlie some of the forms included at empty v. For discussion of epenthetic p see empty adj. and n.

Now chiefly English regional (midlands and southern), U.S. regional (north-eastern), and Newfoundland.

†1. intransitive. To be or make oneself free for an activity. Obsolete. rare.Only in Old English; with the activity in dative.

2. transitive. To make (a vessel, receptacle, etc.) empty; to drain, remove the contents of. Frequently with of: to relieve of certain specified contents; (figurative) to cause to be rid of an attribute, characteristic, etc.
