Etymology
From Middle English yvyned (past participle of vynyen, *vinewen, *fenowen (“to be mouldy”)), from Old English ġefinegod, *ġefynegod, past participle of Old English fynegian (“to become mouldy”), from fyniġ (“mouldy, musty”), equivalent to finew + -ed. Doublet of fenowed. Related to Old English fyne (“moisture, mold, mildew”). More at finew.
