hagglev.

Brit. /ˈhaɡl/, U.S. /ˈhæɡ(ə)l/
Forms: 1500s–1700s hagle, 1500s– haggle, 1700s haghel; also Scottish 1800s– haigle, 1900s– haiggle.
Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: hag v.1, -le suffix.
Etymology: < hag v.1 + -le suffix (compare -le suffix 3). With sense 1 compare similarly hackle v.1 Senses 3 and 4 probably developed from sense 1 via sense 2, the key conception being to make progress through a process of struggle, analogous to strenuous chopping of wood or another hard substance. With sense 3 compare also higgle v., which probably developed from it.
