[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.


Looking at Google Books I see several mentionings but no usages.

  • English Dialect Society. Series B. Reprinted Glossaries. XV--XVII, London 1874 ([1]/[2]/[3]/[4]/[5]): "Yeender, or Eender, sb. the forenoon. Derbysh."

The forenoon. North. This is probably a corruption of undern, q. v."
    • Does "from the Fourteenth Century" mean it's a word from the 14th century, i.e. that it is Middle English?
