Standard spelling for a dialectal phonological preservation of Middle English toun, town, towne (and other forms), which was pronounced the same as this dialectal form, with the now-standard form town having diverged therefrom by action of the Great Vowel Shift. See town for further etymology. See also me (dialectal form of my), hoose (“house”), thoo (“thou”), and oot (“out”), for similar cases.
