a collection or gathering of dew, or a place where dew accumulates; an archaic or rare term.
Constructed from dew plus the suffix -try (as in archery, pottery), following an older English pattern of creating nouns for collections or activities. This appears to be a very rare or obsolete term.
Dewtry follows an old English word-building pattern where -try created nouns for activities or collections—like archery or husbandry—showing how speakers once loved creating specific words for things they observed regularly in nature.
