Attorning

/əˈtɔːrnɪŋ/ verb

Definition

Present participle of 'attorn,' meaning the act of transferring one's loyalty and tenancy to a new lord or property owner.

Etymology

The present participle form of 'attorn' created by adding the '-ing' suffix, which developed from Old English gerund formations and became standardized for continuous or ongoing actions.

Kelly Says

In a single sentence from a medieval contract—'the tenant attorning to the new lord'—you can see the exact moment when English was shifting from formal feudal arrangements to written legal agreements, freezing these archaic verbs in permanent legal language.
