Old word cuckold trivia

I was out working on the high wild areas of a farm today..gorgeous weather..and it made me wonder if I d hear the first cuckoo..but then as I work with the machine my mind strayed into thinking cold cuckoo and cuckold be linked words on account of the cuckoo laying eggs to others to rear..I know wtf why would I wonder about that..anyway Google it and yes they are linked and believe it or not first entry known was 1311!! But back thru earlier centuries it pertained to a husband living with an adulterous wife, dictionary explanation, not mine so no offence meant. Just a useless piece of trivia.

Preston

I always assumed this was where it came from but I didn't know it was so old.

Makes sense though.

cuckold

/'k?kld/

Learn to pronounce

Origin

late Old English, from Old French cucuault, from cucu ‘cuckoo’ (from the cuckoo's habit of laying its egg in another bird's nest). The equivalent words in French and other languages applied to both the bird and the adulterer; cuckold has never been applied to the bird in English.

So you are on to something after all

I thought possibly 17th century but not that far..can't rem_mber which century or where because it wasn't just a British term but if a man lived in such a manner the lady was expected to wear a green head covering!! Wtf

It's the boredom of operating a brush cutter. .a small part of brain focuses on cutting whilst rest goes off to play lolol
