单词 norroy
释义

Norroyn.

Brit. /ˈnɒrɔɪ/, U.S. /ˈnɔrɔɪ/
Forms: late Middle English Noroy, late Middle English (in a late copy) 1500s Norry, late Middle English–1600s Norrey, late Middle English– Norroy, 1500s Norre.
Origin: Apparently either (i) a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Or (ii) a borrowing from French. Etymons: Norreis n.; French norreis.
Etymology: Apparently an inferred singular of Norreis n. or its etymon Anglo-Norman and Old French norreis, norrois (compare quots. below), later associated by folk etymology with nor- (in north adj.) and roy n.2 Compare Surroy n.The office appears to have existed as early as the third quarter of the 13th cent., compare:1276 Charter in A. R. Wagner Heralds of Eng. (1967) 6 Petrus rex hyraudorum citra aquam de Trente ex parte boriali. The word Norreis (see Norreis n.) is associated with this King of Arms from the first half of the 14th cent.: the Issue Rolls and Wardrobe Account of Edward III record payments made in 1338 to ‘Andreu Noreis Roy d'Armes de North’ (the title being used as a surname, as is still usual practice; compare also quot. 1469), and in 1386 the title ‘Rex Noreys’ was given to John Lake (or Othelake), March King of Arms (see further A. R. Wagner Heralds of Eng. (1967) 20, 50; W. H. Godfrey College of Arms (1963) 102–3); compare also:1386 Patent Roll, 9 Richard II ii. m. 21, in A. R. Wagner Heralds & Heraldry (1939) iv. 35 Johannes March unus heraldorum nostrorum ad arma Rex Noreys. The word Norroy first appears (as Norrey; in a Latin context) in the Patent Roll of 1467 appointing Sir Thomas Holme to the office, and recurs in late 15th-cent. grants of arms:1467 Patent Roll 7 Edw. IV (P.R.O.) mem. 17 Thomas Holme alias dictus Norrey Rex Armorum borialis regni nostri Angliae.1469 Grant of Arms in MS BL Add. 37687B Thomas Norrey Rex de Armis in partibus Aquilonaribus.1480 Grant of Arms in MS New England Hist. Genealog. Soc. Norrey Roy darmes des partes du North. It is unclear in all the above examples in a Latin context whether the words Norreis, Norroy are to be interpreted as Middle English or Anglo-Norman.
Heraldry.
(The title of) the third King of Arms, whose jurisdiction lay originally in England to the north of the River Trent, and was extended to include Northern Ireland when the office was united with that of the Ulster King of Arms in 1943. Now more fully Norroy and Ulster King of Arms.
