Is the "blend" etymology correct?
[edit]Didn't think that was a particularly common mechanism for word formation in Spenser's day. Equinox ◑ 01:27, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
- The definition also looks like an improbable blend/combination, how can it mean both "sail along the coast of" and "accost"? - -sche (discuss) 17:24, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
- It's accost sense 3. Equinox ◑ 22:06, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
- Aha. In that case, this is probably just a variant spelling, from an era when spelling was very variable... (no?) - -sche (discuss) 22:58, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
- Done Ety has been changed. Equinox ◑ 17:37, 10 February 2020 (UTC)
