Definitions and meaning of dormouse

dormouse

Etymology

From Middle English dormous, of uncertain origin. Possibly from a dialectal *dor-, from Old Norse dár (“benumbed”) + mous (“mouse”). More at doze, mouse.

The word is sometimes conjectured to come from an Anglo-Norman derivative of Old French dormir (“to sleep”) (as *dormouse (“tending to be dormant”), with second element mistaken for mouse), but no such Anglo-Norman term is known to have existed.

Pronunciation

  • (General American) IPA(key): /ˈdɔɹmaʊs/

  • Rhymes: -ɔː(ɹ)maʊs
