Phrases

at an angle

from all angles

Origin

Late Middle English: from Old French, from Latin angulus 'corner'.

The angle meaning ‘the space between two intersecting lines’ and the one meaning ‘to fish with a rod and line’, or ‘to prompt someone to offer something’ are different words. The first comes from Latin angulus ‘corner’ and the second is an Old English word from ancient Germanic roots. The Angles were a people who migrated to England from Germany during the 5th century and founded kingdoms in the Midlands and East Anglia, eventually giving their name to England and the English. They came from the district of Angul, on the long, curved peninsula that is now called Schleswig-Holstein, and are thought to have got their name because the area was shaped like a fish hook—angle is also an old name for a hook. The ankle (Old English), the bend in the leg, goes back to the same Indo-European root as angle.
