Hazes

/ˈheɪzɪz/ verb

Definition

Third-person singular present tense of haze; means to bully someone or subject them to humiliating treatment, or meteorologically, to cover with a haze.

Etymology

From the verb 'haze,' whose origin is debated but possibly derives from Old French 'haser' (to harass) or represents a variant of 'hazy,' evolving to mean both to cloud and to harass.

Kelly Says

The dual meaning—both a meteorological and social meaning—shows how the same word can emerge independently to describe very different phenomena, or how metaphorical language spreads when something becomes widely understood.
