â¢ ANOINT (verb) The verb ANOINT has 2 senses: 1. choose by or as if by divine intervention. 2. administer an oil or ointment to ; often in a religious ceremony of blessing. Familiarity information: ANOINT used as a verb is rare.
The present verb derives from the now obsolete adjective anoint, equivalent to anointed. The adjective is first attested in 1303, derived from Old French enoint, the past participle of enoindre, from Latin inung(u)ere, an intensified form of ung(u)ere (to anoint). It is thus cognate with unction.
