Why “beclipping” is a great word
BECLIPPING — [Noun] An embrace, or the formal act of embracing. From Middle English *beclipping, *biclupping, from Old English beclypping ("embrace"), equivalent to beclip ("to embrace, clasp") + -ing (noun-forming suffix). First attested c. 1340. Unlike a "hug"—a modern, casual press of affection—or a "clasp"—an instrumental, fastening grip—a beclipping is an archaic art of solemn enclosure. It is the deliberate folding of one form into another: a knight’s farewell before a crusade, the silent press of wool against linen in a darkened hall, the encircling of a traveler returned from a world grown strange—a word where two separate beings briefly become a single, temporary shelter.
