Definitions and meaning of searce

searce

Alternative forms

  • sarse

Etymology

From Middle English sarse, probably from Anglo-Norman cerche, *cerce, from Late Latin *circa.

Traditionally derived from Old French saas (Late Latin *saetāceus (pannus) (“(cloth) made of bristles”)), but this does not explain the -r- or the final -e of the Middle English form; intrusive -r- before /s/ is sometimes found in Middle English, but one would expect etymological r-less forms to appear alongside such forms.

Pronunciation

  • (Received Pronunciation) IPA(key): /sɑːs/, /sɜːs/
  • (General American) IPA(key): /sɑɹs/, /sɚs/
  • Rhymes: -ɑː(ɹ)s, -ɜːs
