ganglingadj.2

Brit. /ˈɡaŋɡlɪŋ/, U.S. /ˈɡæŋɡlɪŋ/
Forms: 1700s– gangling, 1800s– ganglin (Scottish).
Origin: Apparently formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: gang v.1, -le suffix, -ing suffix2.
Etymology: Apparently < gang v.1 + -le suffix + -ing suffix2. Compare earlier gangrel n. and foreign-language forms cited at that entry, and compare also later gangle v.2 (probably a back-formation).Probably originally a regional word (compare the limited distribution of gang v.1 after the early modern period), although this is not indicated by the earliest examples. In the 19th cent. the word was often identified as a regional item, occurring in glossaries of Scots and (somewhat surprisingly, given the distribution of gang v.1 in this period) of English regional (midlands) varieties; compare:1825 J. Jamieson Etymol. Dict. Sc. Lang. Suppl. Ganglin', straggling. Roxb.1847 J. O. Halliwell Dict. Archaic & Provinc. Words I Gangling, tall, slender, delicate, generally applied to plants. Warw.1881 S.
