Definitions and meaning of shive

shive

Etymology 1

A parallel form of sheave, from Middle English schyve, from Proto-West Germanic *skībā, from Proto-Germanic *skībǭ, presumably through an Old English *sċīfe (though it is not attested before the Middle English period). Cognate with German Scheibe, late Old Norse skífa (slice), brauðskífa (slice of bread) (whence Danish skive (disc, slice)), Dutch schijf (disc, slice).

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /ʃaɪv/
  • Rhymes: -aɪv

shive (plural shives)

  1. A slice, especially of bread.
  2. (obsolete) A sheave.
  3. A beam or plank of split wood.
  4. A flat, wide cork for plugging a large hole or closing a wide-mouthed bottle.
Translations

Etymology 2

From Middle English schyfe, schyffe, from Proto-Germanic *skibō-; cognate with German Schäbe, Dutch scheef, and Low German Schääv, all ‘fragment of the woody core of flax or hemp’. The expected pronunciation would be /ʃɪv/; the pronunciation /ʃaɪv/ is probably due to the combined influence of Etymology 1 and the spelling.

  1. A splinter or fragment of the woody core of flax or hemp broken off in braking or scutching
