sloen.

Brit.

/sləʊ/, U.S.

/sloʊ/

Forms: α. Old English slah ( slach-), slag ( slagh-), Old English, Middle English sla, Middle English–1600s slo, Middle English–1500s sloo, 1500s sloa, 1500s– sloe (1800s dialect sloo, slue, slew). β. plural Old English slan, Middle English slon, Middle English sloon, Middle English–1500s sloen, 1600s slone, slane. γ. 1500s–1600s slow(e. δ. 1500s– Scottish and northern slae, 1800s northern sla(a, slaigh, slay, slea, slee, etc.

Etymology: Old English slá(h), etc., = Frisian slé, Middle Dutch slee, slie (Dutch slee, Flemish slei, sleie), sleeu (Kilian sleeuwe), Middle Low German slee (Low German slê, slî), Old High German slêha (Middle High German slêhe, German schlehe, †schlee), perhaps related to Old Slavonic and Russian sliva, Lithuanian slýwas plum. The original plural in -n (Old English slán, Middle English slōn) is recorded down to the 17th cent., and is the source of the singular forms now current in southern dialects (see Eng. Dial. Dict. s.v. Slone). A similar transference appears in Middle Dutch sleen (Flemish sleen, slene), Middle Low German slên, slein (Low German slên, slein, slîn, also slôn, whence probably Danish slaaen, Swedish slån).

a. The fruit of the blackthorn ( Prunus spinosa), a small ovate or globose drupe of a black or dark-purple colour and sharp sour taste.
