▪ I. bing, n.1|bɪŋ|
Also 5–6 bynge, 6–7 binge, byng, 7 bingg.
[a. ON. bing-r masc. ‘heap’; cf. Sw. binge masc. ‘heap.’ Da. bing has the sense not of ‘heap,’ but of ‘bin’; and in Eng. bing has also been used dialectally for bin in various senses since the 15th c. In Da. this change can only be explained by transference of the name from a ‘heap’ to the place where a heap is contained; the Eng. use of bing for bin may be partly of Danish origin, but is prob. largely due to phonetic contact of the two words.]
