The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).
Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.
"(obsolete) Turned upward; bent.". The quotation in Webster is to a work in Middle English. The results I'm finding on Google Books are clearly using kirked in some other way, probably borrowed from Scots kirkit: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]. 24.137.99.97 01:27, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
- Another case of W1913 (sorry, might have been me) sometimes (i) re-spelling words and (ii) mixing up OE and ME with Modern English. It could probably be deleted without controversy, but please keep any usable info, like the corrected citation at the correct page title. Equinox ◑ 01:30, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
