† mortechienn.

Forms: pre-1700 mortechin, pre-1700 morterschynne, pre-1700 mortershynne, pre-1700 mortichean, pre-1700 morticheane, pre-1700 mortichein, pre-1700 morticheyn, pre-1700 morticheyne, pre-1700 mortiechean, pre-1700 mortiecheane, pre-1700 mortiechein, pre-1700 mortiecheyn, pre-1700 mortiecheyne, 1700s mord de chien (irregular), 1700s mortasheen (Orkney), 1700s mortercheyn, 1700s mortichien, 1800s mortarshien, 1800s mortersheen.

Origin: Of uncertain origin.

Etymology: Origin uncertain.Perhaps an alteration of supposed French mort d'eschine , lit. ‘death of the spine’ (arising from a popular belief that the disease was due to an affection of the spinal marrow) < mort mort n.¹ + de de prep. + eschine chine n.², although this is only recorded in an English source:?1523 J. Fitzherbert Bk. Husbandry f. xxxvi And the frenchman sayeth, Morte de lang et de eschine, sount maladyse saunce medycine. The mournynge of the tonge and of the chynne: ar diseases without medicyne or remedy. Mort in this passage is perhaps an error for Middle French morve (late 14th cent. with sense ‘running of the nose’; late 15th cent. with the specific sense ‘glanders’ (one of the symptoms of the disease is a chronic nasal discharge); further etymology uncertain). Mourning , an English name for the disease, is probably an alteration of this French term (see mourning n.²). The form mord de chien (see quot. 1759) probably arises by folk-etymology as if ‘bite of a dog’; compare (in different sense) mort-de-chien n. Compare also mose v., mourn v.²

Scottish. Obsolete.
