clois

See also: clóis and Clois

Irish

Etymology

From Middle Irish cloistid,[1] apparently a conflation of coistid (“is silent, listens”) with clúas (“hearing”). Coistid is a late form of Old Irish con·túaisi. Cognate with Manx clasht and Scottish Gaelic claist.

The past tense forms are suppletive and originally belonged to cluin, itself from Old Irish ro·cluinethar.
