† pionedadj.

Origin: Either (i) a borrowing from French, combined with an English element. Or (ii) formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: French pionner , -ed suffix¹; -ed suffix².

Etymology: Either < Middle French pionner (see pion v.) + -ed suffix¹, or < pion- (in pioneer n.) + -ed suffix². Compare earlier pioning n. and slightly earlier pioning adj.; compare later pion v.

Obsolete.

Dug, excavated. Also figurative. [The meaning of pioned in quot. a1616 has been much disputed: see the Arden Shakespeareedition (ed. F. Kermode, 1997). The conjecture ‘overgrown with marsh-marigold’, offered in Edinb. Rev. Oct. 1872 , 363, and adopted by Schmidt, etc., is not supported by any sense of peony in Britten and Holland Eng. Plant Names , or attested in Eng. Dial. Dict.

In quot. 1650 with reference to Terence Eunuchus 314; pion'd shoulders renders classical Latin demissos humeros, literally ‘sloping shoulders’, but plays on another sense of demitti, ‘to dig, excavate.]
