Antler. World English Historical Dictionary Dictionary Biographies Literary Criticism Welcome Terms of Service ⧏ Previous Next ⧐ Contents Slice Contents Key Bibliographic Record Murray’s New English Dictionary. 1888, rev. 2024. Antler Forms: 3 ? antolier, auntolier, 4–5 auntelere, hauntelere, 5–6 auntler, 6–8 antlier, 6– antler. [a. OFr. antoillier:—late L. *ant(e)oculār-em (ramum) the ‘branch’ or tine of a stag’s horn ‘in front of the eyes’; cf. Ger. augensprosze ‘eye-sprout.’ Antoillier represented an earlier *antoglier (cf. OFr. avogle, It. avocolo:—L. abocul-um, and Fr. oill for *ogl:—oculum), later OFr. andoillier, now andouiller (see Dr. Bugge in Romania, IV. 349). The original English form must have been antolier, auntolier, whence, by weakening and eventual loss of atonic o, auntelere, auntler, antler.]
