Enturret

/ɛnˈtɜːrɪt/ verb

Definition

A rare or archaic verb meaning to furnish or equip with a turret or turrets, or to shape like a turret.

Etymology

From en- (to put into/furnish with) + turret (a small tower), following the productive English pattern of forming verbs from nouns by adding the 'en-' prefix. This word is extremely archaic and appears only in specialized historical or architectural texts.

Kelly Says

Enturret is so rare that it barely exists in written English anymore, but it's a stunning reminder that medieval architecture was so important to the language that they created specific verbs for building architectural features!
