acrospirev.

Brit.

/ˈakrə(ʊ)spʌɪə/, U.S.

/ˈækrəˌspaɪ(ə)r/

Forms:

α. 1600s ackerspier, 1600s–1700s akerspire, 1800s yakkerspire, 1900s– ackerspire; Scottish pre-1700 akyrspire, pre-1700 1800s– acherspyre, 1900s– ackiespyre.

β. 1700s–1800s acrospire.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: English acher , icker n., spire v.¹

Etymology: Apparently < Older Scots acher, variant of icker n. + spire v.¹ In β. forms apparently reinterpreted as showing acro- comb. form as first element, with the second element perhaps being taken to be < either ancient Greek σπεῖρα anything twisted (see spire n.³), or ancient Greek σπείρειν to sow (see sperm n.). Compare later acrospire n.Quot. 1616 occurs in an interpolated passage in Markham's translation, not corresponding to any part of Estienne's French text.

Now rare.

intransitive. Of (a grain of) barley or similar crop, esp. one used for malting: to produce a shoot; to sprout at both ends.
