besmottered

释义

† beˈsmottered, ppl. a. Obs. rare.
In 4 bi-, bysmotered, -erd, 6 Sc. besmotterit.
[A simple smotered or smoteren does not occur: though Chaucer has an adj. smoterlich, which Prof. Skeat takes as = ‘dial. smutty, wanton.’ The Du. smodderen to smut, and LG. besmaddern, have been compared, but do not quite answer phonetically. The form looks like a freq. or dim. of besmut, but neither this nor smut is found so early. Douglas evidently took the word from Chaucer.]
trans. To bespatter as with mud or dirt.
c1386Chaucer Prol. 76 Of ffustian he wered a gypon Al bismotered with his habergeon.1513Douglas æneis v. vi. 124 His face he schew besmotterit.
