leggedadj.

Brit.

/ˈlɛɡᵻd/,

/lɛɡd/, U.S.

/ˈlɛɡəd/,

/lɛɡd/

Forms: see leg n. and -ed suffix².

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: leg n., -ed suffix².

Etymology: < leg n. + -ed suffix². N.E.D. (1902) gives only the pronunciation (legd) /lɛɡd/. In most well-established compounds such as bow-legged, cross-legged, long-legged, one-legged, two-legged, three-legged, etc., it gives both (legd) /lɛɡd/ and (legėd) /lɛɡɪd/. The monosyllabic pronunciation is usual when the word is not the second element of a compound. The disyllabic pronunciation appears still to be common in compounds. There are certain exceptions such as gate-legged, compounds used in specialized names of birds and animals, and the more occasional general compounds, where the monosyllabic pronunciation is usual.

a. Having a leg or legs of a specified kind; esp. in parasynthetic compounds, as bandy-legged, bare-legged, black-legged, bow-legged, cross-legged, long-legged, spindly-legged, two-legged, etc.Many of the more prominent compounds are treated more fully elsewhere, as main entries or at the first element.
