pailn.1

Brit. /peɪl/, U.S. /peɪl/
Forms: Middle English payel, Middle English payell, Middle English payelle, Middle English payl, Middle English–1600s paile, Middle English–1600s payle, Middle English– pail, 1500s–1700s pale, 1600s peale; also Scottish pre-1700 paelle, pre-1700 payule, 1800s pyle.
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French paele.
Etymology: < Anglo-Norman paele, paelle, paiele, paile, paiel, pale pan, bucket and Old French, Middle French paele, paelle, paielle, payelle frying pan (c1150), warming pan, brazier, cauldron (c1170), salt pan (mid 13th cent. in the source translated in quot. 1481 at sense 2), liquid measure (c1275; Middle French poile , French poêle ) < classical Latin patella small pan or dish, plate, in post-classical Latin also salt pan (8th cent.): see patella n. Compare post-classical Latin paella (from late 12th cent. in British sources; also as paila, payla).Old English pægel wine vessel, liquid measure (see quot. below) is unrelated (compare West Frisian pegel liquid measure, quarter of a litre, Middle Dutch pēgel , peile liquid measure, water level marker (Dutch peil water level marker, Dutch regional pegel icicle), Middle Low German pēgel liquid measure, water level marker, German Pegel water level marker, water level, German regional (Swiss) beile measuring stick, Danish pægl (now historical) liquid measure, half a pint, all probably ultimately < post-classical Latin pagella unit of measurement (9th cent.), specific use of classical Latin pāgella small page, column of writing < the same base as pāgina page n.2 + -ella -ella suffix); compare:OE Antwerp Gloss. (1955) 85 Gillo, pægel. It is unclear whether examples such as the following are to be interpreted as showing the Middle English or the Anglo-Norman word:1336–7 in F. R.

1.
a. An open-topped vessel with a hooped carrying handle, typically of slightly tapering cylindrical shape, used esp. for holding or carrying liquids; (now more generally) a bucket. In early use also: †a container for food, a kitchen vessel (obsolete).The precise range of vessels denoted by pail, as distinct from the near-synonymous bucket, has varied over time, and there continues to be much regional variation. As a word for a container for milk pail has long been preferred (cf. milk-pail n. at milk n.1 and adj. Compounds 1b), and it is now frequently taken to be a container for liquids, esp. one made of metal (or plastic); though originally it was made of wooden staves hooped with iron. Cf. dinner pail n., lunch-pail n. at lunch n.2 Compounds 1.Recorded earliest in pail-hoop n. at Compounds 1.
