pannage
PAN-ij
The right to turn pigs into a forest in autumn to feed on beechmast and acorns — a way of sweeping the forest floor of early green acorns that would poison cattle or deer. The rights of pannage still exist in the New Forest. The word names both the practice and the legal right to practice it.
Etymology
Old French pasnage, from Latin pastio, a feeding, from pascere, to feed.
