Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from French. Partly formed within English, by conversion. Etymons: French issue ; issue v.

Etymology: Partly (i) < Anglo-Norman isue, issu, issuwe, issuye, essue, ychue, yseu, Anglo-Norman and Middle French issue (French issue ) place or means of exit (c1155 in Old French as eissue ), action of going out, sally, sortie (c1165), outcome or conclusion of something (late 12th cent.), (of a period of time) end, latter part (last quarter of the 12th cent.), (in plural) entrails (13th cent. of a person killed in combat, 1332 of a butchered animal), discharge of blood or other matter (13th cent. or earlier), revenue, profit, income (a1267 or earlier), outflow (a1365), tax, feudal due (a1436), in Anglo-Norman also offspring, children or descendants collectively (13th cent. or earlier of people and animals), matter, business (13th cent. or earlier), yield, produce (13th cent. or earlier; frequently in plural), mouth of a river or stream (c1300 or earlier), point in question, essential matter in a dispute (1308 or earlier; frequently in legal use), heir, descendant (early 14th cent. or earlier), use as noun of feminine past participle of eissir , issir to go out (see ish v.¹), and partly (in Branch V.) (ii) < issue v.With sense 11 compare Anglo-Norman bone issue good outcome, success (1268 or earlier). Early forms with -sch- , -sh- , -ssh- reflect an Old French (Northern) and Anglo-Norman pronunciation in which assibilation of the medial /s/ occurred; compare Anglo-Norman ychue , and compare issue v. From late Middle English onwards, such spellings may reflect assibilation before /j/ within English, a change which apparently occurred early in some regional varieties. With the forms with initial u or v , compare Anglo-Norman usee , Old French or Middle French (Lorraine) uxue (13th or 14th cent.), variant of issue (influenced by Old French, Middle French ussir , variant of issir : see ish v.¹). For both the noun and the verb, British pronouncing dictionaries from the early 20th cent. until the 1960s give /-sj-/ as the preferred pronunciation and /-ʃ-/ and /-ʃj-/ as alternatives, whereas the most recent British pronouncing dictionaries favour /-ʃ-/. U.S. dictionaries, e.g. various 20th-cent. editions of Webster, chiefly give a pronunciation with /-ʃ(j)-/ and consider /-sj-/ chiefly British.

I. The action of going, flowing, or coming out; the means by which, or place where, this occurs.

1. The action of going or flowing out; the opportunity to flow or go out; exit; release; outflow; an instance of this. Also: (a quantity of) something which flows or comes out in this way.

Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from French. Partly formed within English, by conversion. Etymons: French issue ; issue v. Etymology: Partly (i) < Anglo-Norman isue, issu, issuwe, issuye, essue, ychue, yseu, Anglo-Norman and Middle French issue (French issue ) place or means of exit (c1155 in Old French as eissue ), action of going out, sally, sortie (c1165), outcome or conclusion of something (late 12th cent.), (of a period of time) end, latter part (last quarter of the 12th cent.), (in plural) entrails (13th cent. of a person killed in combat, 1332 of a butchered animal), discharge of blood or other matter (13th cent. or earlier), revenue, profit, income (a1267 or earlier), outflow (a1365), tax, feudal due (a1436), in Anglo-Norman also offspring, children or descendants collectively (13th cent. or earlier of people and animals), matter, business (13th cent. or earlier), yield, produce (13th cent. or earlier; frequently in plural), mouth of a river or stream (c1300 or earlier), point in question, essential matter in a dispute (1308 or earlier; frequently in legal use), heir, descendant (early 14th cent. or earlier), use as noun of feminine past participle of eissir , issir to go out (see ish v.¹), and partly (in Branch V.) (ii) < issue v.With sense 11 compare Anglo-Norman bone issue good outcome, success (1268 or earlier). Early forms with -sch- , -sh- , -ssh- reflect an Old French (Northern) and Anglo-Norman pronunciation in which assibilation of the medial /s/ occurred; compare Anglo-Norman ychue , and compare issue v. From late Middle English onwards, such spellings may reflect assibilation before /j/ within English, a change which apparently occurred early in some regional varieties. With the forms with initial u or v , compare Anglo-Norman usee , Old French or Middle French (Lorraine) uxue (13th or 14th cent.), variant of issue (influenced by Old French, Middle French ussir , variant of issir : see ish v.¹). For both the noun and the verb, British pronouncing dictionaries from the early 20th cent. until the 1960s give /-sj-/ as the preferred pronunciation and /-ʃ-/ and /-ʃj-/ as alternatives, whereas the most recent British pronouncing dictionaries favour /-ʃ-/. U.S. dictionaries, e.g. various 20th-cent. editions of Webster, chiefly give a pronunciation with /-ʃ(j)-/ and consider /-sj-/ chiefly British. I. The action of going, flowing, or coming out; the means by which, or place where, this occurs. 1. The action of going or flowing out; the opportunity to flow or go out; exit; release; outflow; an instance of this. Also: (a quantity of) something which flows or comes out in this way. a.
