to stab or pierce with horns, tusks, or a pointed weapon; to thrust something sharp into.
From en- (to cause) plus gore, which comes from Old English gar (meaning spear) but is semantically related to the gore meaning the triangular piece of cloth (from the pointed shape). The word originally meant to pierce with a pointed object.
This archaic verb is fascinating because 'gore' once just meant any pointed object or weapon, so 'engore' originally meant 'to pierce with something sharp'—the modern meaning of gore as a blood injury is actually a later development from this idea of violent piercing.
