Etymology of GLOZE

The word gloze originated from the Middle English term glosen, which was derived from the Old English word glosian. In turn, glosian can be traced back to the Old Norse word glyja, meaning to give a specious interpretation, to cajole, to flatter. Over time, glosen evolved into gloze in Middle English, and it retained the original sense of deceptive or flattering speech. The term was often used in literature to describe someone's attempt to disguise or obscure the true meaning of something. Today, gloze is less commonly used and has taken on the modern form of gloss.
