Vagulate
Part of speech: verb
Definitions
- Exhibiting a pouch-like or bulbous shape in its form, displaying a rounded structure reminiscent of bags, and characterized by a swollen appearance that suggests fullness
- Showing a form that is bulging or inflated, resembling small sacs or bladders on its surface
- Characterized by a rounded, baggy appearance that suggests distension or puffiness
Etymology: The verb describes something swelling outward in a rounded curve, the way a sail fills with wind or a belly pushes against a shirt. Its ending, "-ate," is the common English verb ending that comes from Latin verbs of the first conjugation, as in "undulate" (to move in waves) and "vibrate." That ending tells us the word was built as a verb from a base, but the base itself is not documented in the sources available to me, so I can't say more about where the word came from.
