An archaic term meaning to prepare, arrange, or make ready; to dress or equip.
From Old English 'adihtan' combined with 'aright,' influenced by Old Norse and Germanic roots meaning 'to direct' or 'to set right.' Common in Middle English literature.
Chaucer and the medieval poets loved 'adight,' but it completely disappeared from English by the 1600s—it's like a linguistic fossil showing us an old way of saying 'prepare' that evolution left behind.
