cintre Arch. rare.|ˈsɪntə(r)|
[a. F. cintre in same sense (16th c. in Littré), along with a cognate vb. cintrer, cf. med.L. cintrum (13th c. Littré), It. ˈcentina and centinare. Of uncertain origin; see Littré and Diez; the latter suggests a L. cincturāre, to girdle or gird. The F. word was perhaps the actual source of centre sense 13, and its derivatives, though these have been in Eng. merged in centre (L. centrum), under which it appears in all the architectural works examined, exc. in Elmes.]
The centre or centering of a bridge or arch.
