† anblowv.

Forms: 1. Present stem Old English onblawan, Old English onblæwþ (3rd singular indicative). 2. Past tense Old English anbleu, early Middle English anbleow, early Middle English onbleow. 3. Past participle early Old English onblawn- (inflected form), Old English onblawen.

Origin: A word inherited from Germanic.

Etymology: Cognate with or formed similarly to Old Frisian onbliā and Old High German anablāen (only attested in weak past participle anaplāit ), both in the sense ‘to breathe something into a person’ < the Germanic base of on- prefix + the Germanic base of blow v.¹ Compare ablow v.In Old English a strong verb of Class VII. Old English (past tense) anbleu and early Middle English (past tense) anbleow show phonological reduction of the first element (compare an- prefix¹). With the earlier readings in quots. a1225¹ and a1225², compare Old English ablāwan on to blow or breathe (a soul, etc.) into or on to a person (see ablow v. 1b).

Obsolete.

transitive. To puff up or inflate (a person) with a specified quality; to blow or breathe (a soul, a spirit, etc.) on to or into a person. Also: to blow on or blow away (a person). Cf. ablow v.
