Etymology of ASTRINGER

The word "astringer" derives from the Middle English term "astryngour", which originated from the Old French word "estraindre" (modern French: étrangler). This French word means "to tighten", "to constrict", or "to strangle". In the context of falconry, which is the hunting of wild game using trained birds of prey, an "astringer" refers to a person who holds the set of birds, typically hawks or falcons, by a leash or string to prevent them from flying away. Over time, the term "astringer" has become less commonly used, and its original meaning of a person involved in falconry has become less prominent.
