单词 reerie
释义

reerien.

Brit. /ˈrɪəri/, U.S. /ˈrɪri/, /ˈriri/, Scottish English /ˈrirɪ/
Forms: 1800s reary, 1800s– reerie.
Origin: Of uncertain origin. Probably formed within English, by derivation. Perhaps a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymons: reer n., rear n.1, -y suffix6; ree-raw n.
Etymology: Origin uncertain. Probably < either reer n. or rear n.1 + -y suffix6, although there is a chronological gap between the last attestations of those words and the present word. Alternatively, perhaps an alteration of ree-raw n. after words in -y suffix6.Compare the slightly earlier reduplicated form with vowel variation reary rary (with which perhaps compare rair , Scots variant of roar v.1):1824 G. Smith Douglas Travestie 20 What is't mak's a the reary rary here? Sc. National Dict. (at cited word) records the word as still in use in north-eastern Scotland in 1968; compare also the isolated occurrences recorded at that entry of the forms rearum (Banffshire, 1866) and reeris (Aberdeenshire, 1925), both in the same sense.
Scottish. Now rare.
