Definitions

  1. A nest of pheasants.

Word origin

Uncertain; possibly from Middle French nid (modern French nid (“nest”)), or its etymon Latin nīdus (“nest”) (ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *nisdós (“nest”)). Doublet of nest.

Used in a sentence

  • [A] nide of pheasants are sometimes collected in a very small space, and in the middle of the day conceal themselves very close.
  • [I]f a hen pheasant takes to new ground, at such a late period of the season, she may be likely to stay and build her nest there, and thus a nide may be lost in the following October.
