Definition
A young goose or gosling, especially one still quite young and not yet fully grown.
Etymology
From Middle Low German gesling or similar Germanic root, diminutive form related to 'goose.' The term is archaic and appears primarily in historical texts and dialectal English.
Kelly Says
Gesling is so obscure that most dictionaries have dropped it entirely, but it perfectly shows how different cultures had different words for each stage of an animal's life.
