    [Adjective]  | "both*ered" | \ ˈbä-t͟hərd \


    1: feeling or showing agitation, worry, annoyance, etc.

    Origin: 1851 ;

     From past participle of {see: |bother:1|bother:1};

    [Verb]  | "both*er" | \ ˈbä-t͟hər \


    1: to annoy especially by petty provocation : irk

    2: to intrude upon : pester

    3: to cause to be somewhat anxious or concerned —often used interjectionally

    Origin: circa 1745 ;

     Of obscure origin ;

      * Note : Early attestations strongly associate the word with Ireland, though if bother is authentically Hiberno-English, the interdental consonant must be secondary, perhaps by association with earlier {pother:1|pother:1}, itself of obscure origin. A hypothetical link with Irish bodhar "deaf, confused" is improbable given that the internal dental consonant in Irish was lost by 1300.;
