† out-takenprep.conj.Origin: Formed within English, by conversion. Etymons: English out-take; out-taken. Etymology: In α. and β. forms respectively < out-take and out-taken, past participles of out-take v. Compare out-taking prep.The α. forms in northern and Scots use (e.g. quots. ?a1400 at sense A. 2, a1522 at sense A. 1aα. ) probably show the influence of southern forms, partly apprehended as showing the imperative of out-take v. The preposition arose from the use of the past participle of the verb out-take with a noun or pronoun in a non-finite clause (corresponding in some cases to a Latin ablative absolute): see out-take v. 1a (although this use of the verb is only attested slightly later). In this construction the participle might follow or precede the noun phrase; the position and effect of the participle in the latter case being equivalent to those of a preposition, it became at length identified with the prepositions: compare the equivalent except adj., prep., and conj. Like other prepositions also, it was used to connect a subordinate clause to a main clause, originally with the subordinator that introducing the subordinate clause, subsequently alone, and thus became a subordinating conjunction. Obsolete. A. prep. 1. Followed by a noun phrase in parallel with a (usually preceding) noun phrase denoting a whole to which that denoted by the complement of the preposition is an exception: with the exception of, except for; = except adj. 1. α. c1380 (1879) 200 (MED) Y knowe non oþre to tristyng to batail with him to take, Out-take hys felawe Olyuere. a1387 J.
