单词 keeve
释义

keevekiven.

/kiːv//kʌɪv/
Forms: α. Old English cýf, Middle English cuf, Middle English kiue, Middle English–1700s kive, 1500s kyve. β. Middle English–1500s keve, 1500s chieffe, 1700s– kieve, 1800s keave, 1600s– keeve.
Etymology: Old English cýf may represent an Old Germanic *kūƀjā, but has no exact equivalent in the cognate languages. The sense is that of Low German küven, keuben and German kübel (Middle High German also kübbel; compare Old High German milich-chubili milk-pail), but these have short u as stem-vowel. The normal representation of Old English cýf, cýfe is kive, but the word is now practically obsolete, except in s.w. dialect, where the form is keeve; compare fere, here, heve, kee = fire, hire, hive, kye.
1. A tub or vat; spec. a vat for holding liquid in brewing and bleaching; in Mining, a vessel in which tin or copper ore is washed.
