karohemdTo those who I asked over the weekend: Remember the word I didn't know? The online Merriam-Webster has this for "wen":
wen
Pronunciation:
\ˈwen\
Function:
noun
Etymology:
Middle English wenn, from Old English; akin to Middle Low German wene wen
Date:
before 12th century
: an abnormal growth or a cyst protruding from a surface especially of the skin
So I was right in my assumption. (it comes up in my Penguin Classic)
