   Where did the word 'goggle' come from?

   • What we do know about it is that it first shows up in the late 14th century, in the form of gogelen, a Middle English word with the meanings “to turn the eyes from one side to the other, to look sideways, squint,” and developed from there. The first senses of goggle dealt with the movement of the eyes—quite literally the rolling or bulging of eyes.
