The word "raggle" is spelled with a double "g" in the middle, despite the fact that the "g" sound only appears once in its pronunciation [ˈræɡəl]. This is because the word is derived from the Old English word "hragian" which had a double "g". Despite changes in pronunciation over time, the spelling of "raggle" has remained consistent. In current usage, "raggle" refers to a groove or channel cut into a surface, often used in construction or masonry.
