† multanglen.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin multangulum.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin multangulum polygon (1569 in the passage translated in quot. 1590), use as noun of neuter of classical Latin multangulus (see multangulous adj.). Compare post-classical Latin multiangulum (6th cent. in Boethius). Compare earlier quadrangle n., triangle n.It is possible that post-classical Latin multangulum in the passage translated in quot. 1590 is to be interpreted as an adjective, agreeing with triangulum triangle n., but the translator appears to have taken it as a noun. The sentence in the Latin reads: Triangulum est quadrangulum aut multangulum.
