Rfv-sense "to deny". This does not seem to have survived into English. Incidentally, we're doing better than old dictionaries if we're right that this is a separate etymology (the ones I checked didn't distinguish this etymologically from warning someone of danger, but did offer usexes "warned 'im the house" and "would warn us" if that helps searching for citations). - -sche (discuss) 05:11, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
