radement (s.xiiim (?))The form reddement2 is a cross reference to the following entry:
[gdw]
Despite a different etymon and core sense, the word seem to have interchanged with reddement1 (from Latin rigidus: ‘stiff, rigid’). The two AND entries have been distinguished primarily on the basis of semantics rather than form. The OED (Third Edition, 2008) proposes an alternative etymology, not from Latin rapidus, but from an unspecified Germanic root, related to Old English hræd.
