RFV discussion: September–October 2022[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.


The OED's last record is a Middle Scots attestation from 1568, but it is not hard to find several 19th-century Northern English examples of this word. However, as far as I know, they are all in the form kindom, which would be expected anyways as a more sensible representation of ModE /ˈkɪndəm/ (regularly developed from Old English cynedōm).
