|vined|
/vaɪn/
(vine)
climbing or trailing plant; twining growth
Etymology
'vined' is formed in English from the base noun 'vine' with the suffix '-ed' to create an adjective or past participle. 'Vine' itself comes from Old French 'vigne', from Latin 'vīnea' (meaning 'vineyard').
'vine' passed into Middle English from Old French 'vigne' (borrowed after contact with Norman French), which derived from Latin 'vīnea'; the English suffix '-ed' was later appended to form 'vined' as an adjective or past participle.
Originally related to 'vine' meaning the plant or a vineyard, the derived form 'vined' came to mean 'having vines' or simply the past participle of a verb meaning 'to grow/cover with vines.'
