Forms: 1700s muschilongoe, 1700s–1800s maskalonge, 1800s mascallunge, 1800s mascalonge, 1800s mascalongé, 1800s masculonge, 1800s maskallonge, 1800s maskalunge, 1800s maskelonge, 1800s masq'allongé, 1800s masque alonge, 1800s moskalonge (in dictionaries), 1800s muscalinga, 1800s muscallonge, 1800s muscallunge, 1800s muscalunge, 1800s muschelongir, 1800s muskalinge, 1800s muskallonge, 1800s muskalonge, 1800s muskalounge, 1800s muskelunge, 1800s muskelunjeh, 1800s musklonghi, 1800s muskullonge (in dictionaries), 1800s– muscalonge, 1800s– muskallunge, 1800s– muskellunge, 1900s muskellon (irregular).

Origin: A variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymon: maskinonge n.

Etymology: Variant of maskinonge n. with dissimilation of -n- to -l-.The forms masq'allongé , masque alonge are probably due to a popular etymology which took the word as French masque long or masque allongé ‘long mask’. The form muscalonge is relatively frequent in 19th-cent. sources. The word was pronounced with four syllables at least as late as the third quarter of the 19th cent., as the spelling of quot. 1866 shows. Webster changes the notation of syllables from four in the 1886 ed. to three in 1890.

Chiefly North American.

A large pike, Esox masquinongy, found in the Great Lakes region of North America, valued for eating and as a game fish.
