DOTTEREL
PRONUNCIATION: (DOT-uhr-uhl)
MEANING: noun:
1. Any of various plovers breeding in mountainous areas.
2. Someone who is easily duped.
ETYMOLOGY: From dote (to be weak-minded from old age), from Middle English doten (to be foolish) + -rel (diminutive or pejorative suffix), as in doggerel and wastrel. The metaphorical sense of the word derives from the apparently unsuspecting nature of the bird. Earliest documented use: 1440.
