bildersn.

/ˈbɪldəs/

Forms: Middle English byllerne, billere, 1500s bylders, bilders, 1500s–1700s belders; modern dialect bilders, billers, bellers.

Etymology: It has been shown by the Rev. A. L. Mayhew, in Notes & Queries Ser. vii. III. 365, that the etymological form is (in the singular) biller, adopted from the Irish biolar, a late variant of biorar water-cress < Old Irish biror (corresponding to Welsh berwr water-cress), < bior, bir water, well, spring. The forms billern and billers, bilders are plural. The word appears in medieval Latin as berula, and is the French berle = Sium angustifolium (Littré). It is also discussed by J. L. G. Mowat in Alphita (Anecd. Oxon.), 21, s.v. Berula.

Herbalism.

A name given by the old herbalists to some water plant or plants, cruciferous or umbelliferous (perhaps Helosciadium or Nasturtium). In modern dialects applied locally to Water Cress, co. Derry; Water Dropwort (Œnanthe crocata), Cornwall; Cow Parsnip, Devon. See Britten and Holland.
