Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymons: French poveraile, poverail, povraille.
Etymology: < Anglo-Norman poveraile, poveraille, poveralie, povraile, povraille, povreile (feminine; also (masculine) poverail, povrail) and Old French povraille, povralle (feminine) poor people collectively, rabble (early 13th cent.) < povere , povre poor adj. + -aile , -aille , -alle , -eile (see -al suffix1).The β. forms are apparently not paralleled in French; they show either elision of the medial -v- or alteration after poor adj.; the same may apply also to some of the α. forms (compare discussion at poor adj. and n.1). Compare earlier poor n.1
Obsolete.
A. n.
a. Poor people as a class; the poor.
