"schapen" meaning in Middle English

See schapen in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Verb

IPA: /ˈʃaːpən/, /ˈʃipən/, /ˈʃupən/ [Southern, especially], /ˈʃɛpə/ [Kent]
Etymology: Inherited from Old English sċieppan, sċeppan, from Proto-West Germanic *skappjan, from Proto-Germanic *skapjaną; by surface analysis, schap (“shape”) + -en (infinitive suffix). In Middle English, the present stem is often adjusted on the model of the past participle schapen (Old English ġesċapen) and other class 6 strong verbs; otherwise, the present stem usually shows the local reflex of /y/. This is easily explained as showing the Late West Saxon development of earlier /i͜y/ in Southern Middle English, but elsewhere it likely represents the raising and rounding of /e/ under the influence of the surrounding /ʃ/ and /p/; the same development apparently occured in -schipe, schippend, and schyppestere, variant of schapestere.

  "etymology_text": "Inherited from Old English sċieppan, sċeppan, from Proto-West Germanic *skappjan, from Proto-Germanic *skapjaną; by surface analysis, schap (“shape”) + -en (infinitive suffix).\nIn Middle English, the present stem is often adjusted on the model of the past participle schapen (Old English ġesċapen) and other class 6 strong verbs; otherwise, the present stem usually shows the local reflex of /y/. This is easily explained as showing the Late West Saxon development of earlier /i͜y/ in Southern Middle English, but elsewhere it likely represents the raising and rounding of /e/ under the influence of the surrounding /ʃ/ and /p/; the same development apparently occured in -schipe, schippend, and schyppestere, variant of schapestere.",
