释义

spreadlen.

Forms: Middle English spredeles (probably plural), Middle English spridels (plural).
Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: spread v., -el suffix1; spread v., -els suffix.
Etymology: Origin uncertain. Perhaps either (i) < spread v. + -el suffix1 (compare -le suffix), or (ii) < spread v. + -els suffix.As no certain instances of the singular are attested, evidence is lacking to determine its form (with final -s , or without). It has alternatively been suggested that this word may be a compound < spread v. + deal n.1, although the attested forms do not supply evidence to confirm this.
Obsolete. rare.
Perhaps: a fee for using a place to spread nets in; (quot. 13861) such a place.
