custume

== Middle English == === Etymology 1 === Borrowed from Anglo-Norman custume, from Latin cōnsuētūdinem. First attested in c. 1200. As evidenced by forms such as custome, forms with initial stress and concomitant vowel reduction were common from an early stage (perhaps reinforced by forms such as custumable); though compare the rime custume:volume in the Wife of Bath's Tale. ==== Alternative forms ==== costom, costome, custom, custome, custum, custumme, kostome custoum, custowme (Late Middle English); custwm, custwme, cwstwme, quostome (Early Scots) ==== Pronunciation ==== IPA(key): /kuˈstiu̯m(ə)/, /ˈkustum(ə)/ ==== Noun ==== custume (plural custumes) A habit; a routine action or practice: A convention or tradition; a long-established community practice.
