baizen.

Brit.

/beɪz/, U.S.

/beɪz/

Forms: 1500s–1700s bayes, 1600s baies, bease, bayz(e, 1600s–1800s bays, 1600s– baize.

Etymology: < French baies (1570 in Godefroy, ‘les baies et sarges’), plural feminine used substantively of adjective bai < Latin badius chestnut-coloured, bay adj.; so named probably from its original colour. The same material is called in Italian bajetta (Florio 1598), Spanish bayeta , Dutch baai , Danish bai , Swedish boi . The plural form of the adopted word was soon misunderstood, and treated as a collective singular (occasionally with plural bayses ), whence the spelling bayze , baize , rare before 1800, but now quite established; the etymological singular bay n.⁷ is, however, also found.

a. A coarse woollen stuff, having a long nap, now used chiefly for linings, coverings, curtains, etc., in warmer countries for articles of clothing, e.g. shirts, petticoats, ponchos; it was formerly, when made of finer and lighter texture, used as a clothing material in Britain also.
