Meaning & usage
boisterous, cheeky child
Where this word comes from
From an East Central German word for “sow on heat”, derived from Middle High German rangen (“to run back and forth”), from the root of Proto-Germanic *wringaną (“to wring”). Related with wringen and rangeln (“to scrap, wrestle”). Note that the loss of initial w- in Range is simply the regular High German development, whereas in rangeln (which is of Low German origin) it has a different reason; see the lemma.
