"path" meaning in Middle English

See path in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /paθ/, /paːθ/, /pɛθ/ Forms: pathes [plural]
Rhymes: -aθ Etymology: Inherited from Old English pæþ, from Proto-West Germanic *paþ, from Proto-Germanic *paþaz, from an Iranian language, from Proto-Iranian *pántaHh, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *pántaHs. The spellings paath and pathe and Scots paith prove that a pronunciation of this word with /aː/ existed; it presumably originated from open-syllable lengthening in inflected forms.
