trousiesn.

Brit.

/ˈtraʊzɪz/, U.S.

/ˈtraʊziz/

Forms: 1600s 1800s– trousies, 1600s– trowsies.

Origin: Partly formed within English, by clipping or shortening. Perhaps also partly formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: trousers n., -y suffix⁶; trouse n.², -s.

Etymology: Partly shortened < trousers n. (compare -y suffix⁶). Probably partly also (especially in Scottish use) a variant of trouses , plural form of trouse n.² (compare discussion in quot. 1913). Perhaps partly also (especially in early use) < trouse n.² + -y suffix⁶ + -s, plural ending (compare the plural uses discussed at trouse n.²).

Chiefly regional or colloquial, and in representations of nonstandard speech.

Trousers (in various senses). In early use: spec. breeches or trews.
