† ˈgalloc Obs. Also 1 gallac, galluc. [perh. corruptly ad. late L. anagallicum (also anagalla; cf. class. L. anagallis, supposed to mean ‘pimpernel’); see quot. c 1450 s.v. comfrey.] The plant comfrey (Symphytum officinale). In OE. vocabularies the word renders not only sinfitum and confirma (comfrey) but also galla (in class. L. = gall-nut), adriatica, adriaca (of unknown meaning), and mālum terræ (in class. L. = birthwort). It is not clear whether the L. words were in late L. applied to the comfrey, or whether galluc denoted several different plants, or, finally, whether the glosses are mere mistranslations.
