A quick definition of warnoth:
Term: WARNOTH
Definition: Warnoth is an old rule that said if a person who rented a house or land didn't pay their rent on time, they had to pay double the amount they owed. If they still didn't pay, they had to pay triple the amount, and so on. It was a way to make sure people paid their rent on time.
A more thorough explanation:
Warnoth (wor-noht) is a historical custom in which a tenant who failed to pay rent on a set day had to pay double the amount due. If the tenant failed to pay again, they had to pay triple the amount due, and so on.
For example, if a tenant owed $500 in rent and failed to pay on the set day, they would have to pay $1000 if they paid the next day. If they failed to pay again, they would have to pay $1500.
Another example would be if a tenant owed $1000 in rent and failed to pay on the set day, they would have to pay $2000 if they paid the next day. If they failed to pay again, they would have to pay $3000.
These examples illustrate how the warnoth custom worked. If a tenant failed to pay rent on time, they would face increasingly severe consequences, making it important to pay rent on the set day.
