Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymons: French oiez, oir.
Etymology: < Anglo-Norman and Middle French oiez, oyez hear ye!, second person imperative plural of oir (see oyer and terminer n.).The (predominant) β. forms apparently indicate /s/ as the value of the final consonant at the time of borrowing, leading to frequent reinterpretation of the word as showing yes adv. It is uncertain whether the α. forms show an inferred singular or arise either from the Anglo-Norman and Middle French imperative singular or from pronunciations of oiez , oyez in Anglo-Norman or Middle French with loss of the final consonant. Most 18th-cent. dictionaries, including Sheridan (1780) and Walker (1791), record stress on the second syllable. In 19th-cent. dictionaries stress varies between the first and second syllables. N.E.D. (1904) gives only the pronunciation (ōuˌye·s) /əʊˈjɛs/. Pronunciations with final /-z/ are recorded in a number of 19th-cent. sources from Knowles (1835) onwards; pronunciations in which the final consonant is silent are recorded by late 20th-cent. sources from Webster (1961) onwards. In sense A. b apparently influenced by post-classical Latin huesium (see utas n.2).
A. n.
a. A call for silence and attention; a call or cry of ‘oyez!’ Obsolete.Quot. 1635 has O's ace, a variant plural of O ace (pronounced in the north O yas or O yess).
