quinquefoiln.adj.

Brit.

/ˈkwɪŋkwᵻfɔɪl/, U.S.

/ˈkwɪŋkwəˌfɔɪl/

Forms:

α. Old English quinquefolie, Old English 1700s quinquefolium, 1600s quinquefolio.

β. late Middle English quinfoyle, late Middle English quynfoyly, late Middle English qwynfoile, late Middle English–1500s quinfoile.

γ. late Middle English quintefolle, late Middle English quintefoyle, late Middle English quintfoile, late Middle English quintfoill, late Middle English quyntefoil, late Middle English quyntefoyle, late Middle English whyntfoyle, late Middle English–1500s quintfoil; Scottish pre-1700 quintefeulle, pre-1700 quyntfoyle.

δ. late Middle English quinkfoile, 1500s quinckefoyle, 1500s quynckefoyle, 1500s quynckfolie, 1500s quynquefoyle, 1600s quinquefoile, 1800s– quinquefoil.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin quīnquefolium.

Etymology: < classical Latin quīnquefolium cinquefoil (the plant), in post-classical Latin also ornamental design resembling this leaf (1245 in a British source), use as noun of neuter of quīnquefolius having five leaves < quīnque- quinque- comb. form + folium leaf (see foil n.¹).With the β. , γ. , and δ. forms compare forms at cinquefoil n. and adj.; the word probably partly shows remodelling of cinquefoil n. and adj. after classical Latin quīnquefolium. Compare also Anglo-Norman quintefoil (c1300 or earlier), quintofoil (14th cent. or earlier), quintefoile (early 15th cent. or earlier; also quintefoille ), quintfoil (1500 or earlier). Earlier currency of the γ. forms may be shown by occurrences as a vernacular word in Latin or multilingual medical recipes (see e.g. the gloss pentafilon .i. quintefoil, c1300 in T. Hunt Popular Medicine in Thirteenth-century England (1990) 225), but these could alternatively be taken as showing the Anglo-Norman word.

Now rare.

A. n.

1. A cinquefoil (genus Potentilla), which typically has compound leaves of five leaflets. Now chiefly U.S. and rare.
