The word engild is derived from the combination of two elements: en- and gild.

The prefix en- is derived from Old English and has various meanings, including in, into, or make. It is used to indicate a change or addition to the base word.

The base word gild comes from Old English gieldan, meaning to gild or to cover with a thin layer of gold. This verb was associated with the process of applying a gold coating or an artificial layer of golden color to an object.

Therefore, engild is formed by adding the prefix en- to gild, resulting in a verb that means to make or give a golden appearance to something or to embellish or give a golden touch to an object.
