Cothe

Definition

An archaic or dialectal term for a cottage or small dwelling, particularly in Middle English texts.

Etymology

From Old English 'cote,' meaning a shelter or small house, related to 'cottage'; the 'h' insertion reflects dialectal spelling variations.

Kelly Says

Medieval scribes spelled the same word dozens of different ways—'cothe' shows how fluid language was before printing standardized spelling around the 1500s.
