释义

oilletn.

Brit. /ˈɔɪlᵻt/, U.S. /ˈɔɪlᵻt/
Forms: Middle English oilete, Middle English oliet, Middle English olyett, Middle English olyette, Middle English oylete, Middle English ulettes (plural), Middle English ulyettes (plural), Middle English (1800s English regional (Lancashire)) olyet, Middle English–1600s oylett, Middle English–1800s oylet, Middle English– oilet, 1500s oylestes (plural, transmission error), 1500s oyliet, 1600s oelet, 1700s oeillet, 1800s oeilette, 1800s– oillet; also Scottish pre-1700 ulȝeat, pre-1700 vlyeit.
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymons: French oillet, œuillet.
Etymology: < Anglo-Norman oillet, ollet little eye (early 12th cent.) and Middle French œuillet, oillet, œillet (French œillet ) small round hole in fabric (second half of the 13th cent. in Old French as oellet ), little eye (14th cent.), window surround in form of an eye (early 15th cent.), small eye of a plant (1530) < Anglo-Norman oil , Middle French oeïl eye (see oeillade n.) + -et -et suffix1. Sense 1 is not attested in French. Compare post-classical Latin oilettus eyelet-hole (1384, c1386 in British sources; < French). Compare also later eyelet n.It is uncertain whether quots. 1333 and 1383-4 at sense 1, which show a vernacular word in a Latin context, should be taken as showing Middle English or an otherwise unattested Anglo-Norman parallel in this sense. The interpretation of the following example is unclear, which apparently shows a reduced form of the first element, or alteration after eye n.1 (compare eyelet n.):?a1500 Nominale (Yale Beinecke 594) in T. Wright & R. P. Wülcker Anglo-Saxon & Old Eng. Vocab. (1884) I. 598/39 Ocellulus, an ylet.
Now archaic and historical.
