A young or small goose; a gosling (alternative or archaic term).
Diminutive form of 'gos' (goose), with the -let suffix indicating something small or youthful, parallel to how 'gosling' is formed.
Like 'duckling' and 'gosling,' the suffix -let is used to turn animal names into cute, baby versions—it's one of the oldest ways English speakers have talked about young animals tenderly.
