different between vineyard vs wineyard

vineyard

English

Alternative forms

  • vinyard (obsolete)

Etymology

Equivalent to vine +? yard; from Middle English vyne?erd (circa 1300), following earlier Old English w?n?eard (“wine yard, vine yard”), with vine (from Old French vigne (“vine, vineyard”), from Latin v?nea) replacing native Old English w?n (“wine, vine”). The earlier w?n?eard may have had the sense of “vine” already, with /w/ ? /v/ facilitated by common v-/w- interchange. Compare Dutch wijngaard (literally “wine garden”) and German Weingarten alongside contracted Wingert. (Dutch gaard, German Garten are cognate to English yard.)
