flanchv.

Brit. /flɑːn(t)ʃ/, /flan(t)ʃ/, U.S. /flæn(t)ʃ/
Forms: Also flaunch, flange v.
Etymology: Of obscure origin; there would seem to be some connection with the synonymous flan v.; but the relation between the two words is not explained by any known process of derivation. Assuming the primary sense to be ‘to extend laterally’, flanch might conceivably be derived < French flanc flank n.1; but no verb *flancher of similar sense has been discovered in French of any period. An Old French flanchir , flangir , flainchir occurs as a synonym (perhaps a variant) of flechir to bend (compare flinch v.1). Can the English verb be an adoption of this in a specialized sense?
intransitive. To spread, widen out; to slope outwards towards the top. Also with out, off. to flanch up: to slope inwards towards the top; applied especially to the outsides of chimney-shafts.
