releet

(also eleet, e-leet, ey-leet)

noun rɪˈliːt

English Regional, East Anglian

Chiefly in place names: a place where two or more roads meet, a crossroads or other road junction. Usually with the number of roads specified by a preceding numeral, especially in "three-releet", "four-releet".

Origin

Early 19th century; earliest use found in Edward Moor (1771–1848), writer on Hindu mythology. Apparently from -releet in threereleet, foureleet, by metanalysis; the latter representing respectively the reflexes of the Old English genitive phrases *þrēora gelǣte, lit. ‘junction of three (ways)’ and *fēowera gelǣte, lit. ‘junction of four (ways)’, short for þrēora wega gelǣte and fēowera wega gelǣte: see leet.
