martn.2

Brit. /mɑːt/, U.S. /mɑrt/, Scottish English /mart/, Irish English /mɑːrt/
Forms: Middle English marte, Middle English martir (perhaps transmission error), Middle English (1800s– historical and English regional (northern)) mart, 1800s mayrt (English regional (northern)), 1800s– mairt (English regional (northern)); Scottish pre-1700 mairtt, pre-1700 marte, pre-1700 martt, pre-1700 meart, pre-1700 meirt, pre-1700 merte, pre-1700 mertt, pre-1700 1700s– mart, pre-1700 1800s– mairt, pre-1700 1800s– mert, 1800s märt, 1800s– maert (Shetland); Irish English 1500s–1600s 1900s– mart.
Origin: Either (i) a borrowing from Latin. Or (ii) partly a borrowing from Scottish Gaelic. And (iii) partly a borrowing from Irish. Etymons: Latin martus; Scottish Gaelic mart, Irish mart.
Etymology: Either < post-classical Latin martus (1211 onwards in British sources), marta (1308 onwards in British sources) ox or cow fed for slaughter, or its etymons Scottish Gaelic mart cow, and Irish mart carcass of beef, cow < Early Irish mart massacre, victim, butchered animal (especially cow), cow, probably related to marb dead, and thus ultimately < the same Indo-European base as classical Latin morī to die (see morient adj.).With the folk etymology in quot. 1908 at sense 1a, compare Martinmas beef n. at Martinmas n. Compounds 2. The form martir in quot. c1330 at sense 1a is perhaps after martyr n., or perhaps simply shows a transmission error for final -s.
Chiefly English regional (northern), Scottish, and Irish English.
1.
a. An ox or cow fattened for slaughter, esp. one which is subsequently salted or smoked as winter provision. Frequently with modifying word. Also figurative in quot. 1591.Applied both to the living animal and to the carcass after slaughter.

martn.5

Brit. /mɑːt/, U.S. /mɑrt/
Origin: Formed within English, by back-formation. Etymon: foumart n.
Etymology: Back-formation < foumart n. Compare marter n.1The formation shows analysis of foumart n. as implying a simplex word ‘mart’ (compare quot. 1714); the final -t of the second element of foumart n. in fact probably shows a specifically low-stress development of Old English mearþ marten (see marter n.1), and thus would be unlikely in a direct continuation of this word.
Chiefly regional. Now rare.
A marten or polecat; esp. the pine marten, Martes martes. Cf. sweet-mart n. at sweet adj. and adv. Compounds 1a and foumart n.
