Definition
The act or process of removing wool or hair from an animal; the fleecing process itself.
Etymology
From 'fleece' (Old English 'fleos') combined with the suffix '-ment' denoting an action or process. The root relates to proto-Germanic wool-related terms that evolved to mean both the woolly covering and the act of removing it.
Kelly Says
This archaic term shows how English loved creating formal nouns for everyday actions—we don't say 'sheepwashing' but 'fleechment' shows Medieval people were making their vocabulary sound more important by adding Latin-style suffixes to common work.
