Definitions

  1. (Yiddish) glazed yeast-raised doughnut-shaped roll with hard crust

Word origin

Borrowed from Yiddish בייגל (beygl), ultimately from a diminutive of Middle High German bouc, boug- (“ring, bracelet”), from Old High German boug (“ring”), from Proto-West Germanic *baug, from Proto-Germanic *baugaz (“ring”).

Used in a sentence

  • “He’s so adorable, Aaron. Part beagle, part basset hound.” “A bagel. Very appropriate.”
  • In October, Allan and Rebecca began to care for Marty’s dog Phil more often and adopted the “bagel” (basset and beagle mix breed) when the time came.
  • The Bagel isn’t necessarily a popular dog, but they seem to appear often enough to be worth mentioning.
