glentv.

/ɡlɛnt/
Forms: present tense Middle English–1500s glente, Middle English glentte, Middle English– glent. past tense Middle English–1500s glent(e, Middle English glented. past participle glente.
Origin: Probably a borrowing from early Scandinavian.
Etymology: Probably of Scandinavian origin; compare Swedish (dialect) glänta , glinta , glätta to slip, slide; to open slightly; to shine, gleam. The root (Old Germanic *glint- , glant- ) appears also in Old High German glanz adjective, bright, clear, whence Old High German glęnzen (German glänzen ) to shine, glitter; and perhaps in Old Norse glettr , gletta banter, railing, glettask to banter, taunt; Swedish (dialect) glänta , Danish glente a kite (compare glede n.). The original sense is probably that of quick motion, the application to light being secondary; for a similar development compare glance v.1
Obsolete exc. dialect.
