petroneln.

Brit.

/ˈpɛtrənl/, U.S.

/ˈpɛtrən(ə)l/

Forms: 1500s patronell, 1500s petranel, 1500s petranell, 1500s petrenall, 1500s–1600s petronell, 1500s–1600s petternel, 1500s– petronel, 1600s peternel, 1600s petrinall, 1600s petrionel, 1600s petronall, 1600s petronil, 1600s petronill, 1600s petternall, 1600s pewternel, 1700s pewternall, 1800s petrenel; also Scottish pre-1700 puitternell.

Origin: Apparently a borrowing from French. Etymon: French petrinal.

Etymology: Apparently < Middle French petrinal (1573; French †pétrinal ), of uncertain origin. Compare Middle French, French mousquet poitrinal (1561), Middle French, French poitrinal (1577) in the same sense, suggesting an etymology < poitrine breast, chest (see poitrinaire n.), apparently after the way the weapon was fired (probably with the butt end resting against the chest), although it is possible that these forms may show folk-etymological alteration.An alternative etymology derives the term ultimately either < Spanish pedreñal fire-lock (although this is first attested later in this sense: 1581; 1463 in sense ‘flint’) or < Catalan pedrenyal fire-arm (1568), flint (1578); compare Spanish pedernal (1240–50), pedrenal (c1295) flint, gun-flint ( < post-classical Latin petrinus ( < petra (see petro- comb. form¹) + -inus -ine suffix¹) + Spanish -al -al suffix¹), Catalan pedreny flint, heap of stone (undated), pedrenya flint, gun-flint (undated). Compare also Italian pietranello, pietronello cavalry soldier armed with a petronel, pietronello petronel (1598 in Florio). An alternative suggestion connecting the term with Spanish pretina, †petrina girdle, belt (cognate with French poitrine, see above) cannot be confirmed.

Now historical.
