The word "ingorge" originated in the late Middle English period, around the 15th century. It is derived from the Old French word "engorgier", which means "to eat greedily" or "to stuff oneself". The Old French term was a combination of the prefix "en", meaning "in" or "to" and the root word "gorge", which refers to the throat or the act of swallowing. Therefore, "ingorge" was formed to describe the action of eating or swallowing excessively or greedily.
