cajolev.

Brit. /kəˈdʒəʊl/, U.S. /kəˈdʒoʊl/
Forms: Also 1600s caiole, cageole, cajoul, 1600s–1700s cajol.
Etymology: < French cajoler, in same sense, of uncertain origin and history. Paré c1550 has ‘cageoller comme un gay’ to chatter like a jay. Littré has 16th cent. examples of cajoler, cajoller, cageoller, in the senses ‘to chatter like a jay or magpie’, and ‘to sing’, also, in the modern sense ‘to cajole’. Cotgrave 1611 has cajoler, cageoler ‘to prattle or jangle like a jay (in a cage), to bable or prate much to little purpose’. Most etymologists taking cageoler as the original form, have inferred its derivation < cage cage, through an assumed diminutive *cageole. This is doubtful both in regard to sense and form; the early meaning ‘to chatter like a jay’ does not very obviously arise < cage, and does not clearly give rise to the modern sense. The French diminutive of cage is not *cageole but geôle jail, whence French enjôler (Old French engaioler, engauler, Spanish enjaular) ‘to put in jail, imprison’, also ‘to inveigle, entice, allure, enthrall by fair words, cajole’. In Namur, cajoler has the sense enjoliver, to make joli, whence Grandgagnage would refer it to the stem jol- of joli, with ‘prefix ca- frequent in Walloon with an iterative force’. It is possible that two or even three words are here confused; in the modern sense, French cajoler is synonymous with enjôler above, and if not cognate with that word, its sense has probably at least been taken over from it by form-association of cageoler or cajoler with enjôler. But the working out of the history must be left to French etymologists.
