Etymology of REGORGE

The word "regorge" has its origins in the Latin language. It is derived from the combination of two Latin words: "re", meaning "again" or "back", and "gurgitare", meaning "to engulf" or "to swallow". In Latin, the word "regurgitare" referred to the act of bringing up or spitting out food that had been previously swallowed. Over time, the word evolved and was borrowed into Old French as "regorger", which meant "to flood" or "to overflow". From Old French, the word eventually made its way into Middle English as "regorge", where it typically meant "to flood" or "to overflow with water". In modern English, the term has taken on a figurative meaning, often used to describe the act of vomiting or disgorging something, particularly regarding strong emotions or overwhelming quantities of information.
