Etymology of JANGLE

The word "jangle" originated from Middle English in the 14th century. It can be traced back to the Old French word "jangler", meaning "to talk excessively, chatter". The French term ultimately derived from the Latin word "gannire", which also meant "to chatter". Over time, "jangle" evolved from specifically referring to excessive talking into its more modern sense of producing a harsh, discordant sound.
