Source etymology 1
Original entry ↗noun
Selected source glosses provide context, not a complete modern definition inventoryA second crop of hay (within a growing season). · A stubble field left unploughed until late in the autumn, so that it can be cropped by cattle.
From Middle English rewayn, from Anglo-Norman rewain, from an Old Northern French variant of Old French regain (“an increase”), from re- + gaigner (“to till, win”). The alternative forms represent replacement of unanalysable final /ən/ with the more tractable suffixes -et, -ing; roughing presumably relies on a lost pronunciation of rough as /ˈɹaʊ/.
