Tide (time) : ウィキペディア英語版
Tide (time)

''Tide'' is an obsolete or archaic term for time, period or season.
It survives in compounds such as Yuletide, eventide, shrovetide, Eastertide, noontide, etc.
A simple noun tide was used synonymously with time and as a unit of time with hour in Old English and Middle English, but this usage became obsolete in the 15th century and survives only in occasional poetic reference to "occasion" or "favourable, proper time".
Contemporary English narrows the application of the word to the tides of the sea.
==Etymology==
The term "tide" has cognates in other Germanic languages, including Dutch (''tijd'') and German (''Zeit''). In German, the word for the tides of the sea (''Gezeiten'') is based on the root ''Zeit,'' indicating a relationship between these two words that is no longer present to the same degree in English. The Anglo Saxon word 'tyd', from which the 'tide' is derived, means 'seasons' in a general sense.〔(Maritime Tide. )〕
