elongv.

Forms: Middle English eslonge, Middle English–1600s elonge, 1500s–1600s elong.
Etymology: < late Latin ēlongāre to remove to a distance, < ē out + longē far away. Sense 1 of this word, and the ordinary modern sense of elongate adj., show that the Latin word was sometimes taken as < ē + longus long. The form eslonge is due to the influence of the equivalent Romanic form: see eloin v.
