Rfv-sense
The noun seems more Scots than English. The only quote in the entry is also found in the A Dictionary of the Older Scottish Tongue (up to 1700):
- And syne or that intermell wes done, / The greit battell on euerie syd did jone, / With sic ane reird quhill all the rochis rang, / So thrafullie togidder that tha thrang.
The definition, "A battle fought in close combat", also seems a little off- the Scots dictionary has "A mingled host; a mixed encounter." Chuck Entz (talk) 06:29, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
