Applot

/əˈplɑt/ verb

Definition

An archaic or historical term meaning to allot, distribute, or assign land or property to someone.

Etymology

From Old French 'apoloter' or related to 'plot' (a piece of land) with the prefix 'ap-,' used historically in English law and property management contexts.

Kelly Says

This is a genuinely archaic word you'd only find in old English legal documents or historical property records—it's a reminder that 'plot' once had an older verb form that's no longer in use.
