短释义：
Gaggle is a word known as a “term of venery,” a collective noun used to describe a particular group of animals. When a bunch of geese waddle around on the ground, that’s a gaggle of geese. If those same geese were flying overhead, you’d call them a flock or a skein instead. Gaggle is also useful for describing a disorderly or chaotic group of people: “I was surrounded by a gaggle of three-year-olds eager to pet my puppy.”
一群鹅是一群鹅。您还可以描述一群人以混乱的方式漫步的人。

词源：
gaggle (n.)late 15c., gagyll, with reference to both geese and women (on the notion of “chattering company”). Barnhart says possibly from Old Norse gagl “small goose, gosling, wild goose;” OED calls it “one of the many artificial terms invented in the 15th c. as distinctive collectives referring to particular animals or classes of persons.” Possibly of imitative origin (compare Dutch gagelen “to chatter;” Middle English gaggle “to cackle,” used of geese, attested from late 14c.). The loosened general sense of “group of people” is from 1946.Related entries & more
