gilled

/ɡɪld/ adj

Having gills

Word Origin 'Gill' comes straight from Old Norse, the language of the Vikings who knew their fish. So 'gilled' simply means having gills — like a fish or an amphibian. It's a straightforward word, but it's a reminder of how much of our everyday vocabulary about the sea comes from Scandinavian languages.
