Definition
Past tense of gloze; explained away or covered up something unpleasant with excuses or smooth talk.
Etymology
Past tense form of gloze, from Old French gloser. The -ed suffix is the standard English past tense marker, used since Old English times.
Kelly Says
In Chaucer's works, characters 'glozed' their way out of trouble with beautiful language—it's a linguistic reminder that smooth talk and truth aren't the same thing.
